For the redox reaction

MnO_ + C_2O_ + H^+ → Mn^{2+} + CO_2 + H_2O

The correct coefficients of the reactants for the balanced equation are

Answer: (2)

Solution

Reduction: (Mn changes from to , -factor 5). Oxidation: (C changes from to , -factor 2). To equalise the electrons multiply the reduction by 2 and
