(vi) MnO_(4)^(-)+Fe^(2+)to Mn^(2+)+Fe^(3+).

Answer»

Solution :
Equalise the increase/ decrease in Oxidation number by multiplying Mn species by 1 and Fe species by 5.
`MnO_(4)^(-)+5Fe^(2+)to Mn^(2+)+5Fe^(3+)`
Balance all other ATOMS EXCEPT O and H
`MnO_(4)^(-) +5Fe^(2+)to Mn^(2+)+5Fe^(3+)`.
Balance O atom by adding `H_2O` on the side falling short of hydrogen and equal number `OH^(-)` on the opposite side.
`MnO_(4)^(-)+5Fe^(2+)+8H_2Oto Mn^(2+)+5Fe^(3+)+4H_(2)O+8OH^(-)`
`MnO_(4)^(-)+5Fe^(2+)+8H_(2)O to Mn^(2+)+5Fe^(3+)+4H_(2)O+8OH^(-)`.
