One mole of oxalic acid (H2C2O4) is equivalent to how many moles of permanganate (MnO4)?

Question

According to the balanaced chemical equation.

5 H2C2O4 (aq) + 2 MnO4 (aq) + 6H+ (aq) ----> 10 CO2 (g) + 2 Mn2+ (aq) + 8 H2O (l)

a.) 1
b.) 2
c.) 2/5
d.) 5/2


please show work!

Answer 1

That would be c. Just take the moles of MnO4 and divide that by the moles of H2C2O4 and you get 2/5.

Answer 2

c

Answer 3

c.
