Some Basic Concepts Of Chemistry Question 198

Question: The equivalent weight of $ MnSO _4 $ is half its molecular weight when it is converted to [IIT 1988; CPMT 1994]

Options:

A) $ Mn _2O _3 $

B) $ MnO _2 $

C) $ MnO _4 $

D) $ MnO_4^{2-} $

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: B

Solution:

$ \overset{+2}{\mathop{Mn}},SO _4\to \overset{+4}{\mathop{Mn}},O _2 $

Change of valency $ =4-2=2 $

$ \therefore $ Equivalent weight $ =\frac{M}{2} $ .
