Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

In a redox reaction, if the oxidation state of manganese changes from +7 to +2, how many electrons are gained?
  • Step 1: Identify the initial oxidation state of manganese, which is +7.
  • Step 2: Identify the final oxidation state of manganese, which is +2.
  • Step 3: Calculate the change in oxidation state by subtracting the final state from the initial state: +7 - +2.
  • Step 4: Perform the subtraction: 7 - 2 = 5.
  • Step 5: Since the oxidation state decreased, this means manganese gained electrons. Therefore, it gained 5 electrons.
