Answer:
The unbalanced chemical equation is:
MnO
4
−
(aq)+SO
2
(g)→Mn
2+
(aq)+HSO
4
−
(aq)
The oxidation half reaction is
SO
2
(g)+2H
2
O(l)→HSO
4
−
(aq)+3H
+
(aq)+2e
−
(aq).
The reduction half reaction is
MnO
4
−
(aq)→Mn
(
2+)(aq).
In the reduction half reaction, the oxidation number of Mn changes from +7 to +2. Hence, 5 electrons are added to LHS of the reaction.
MnO
4
−
(aq)+5e
−
→Mn
2+
(aq)
Charge is balanced in the reduction half reaction by adding 8 hydrogen ions to LHS.
MnO

−
(aq)+5e
−
+8H

(aq)→Mn
2+
(aq)
To balance O atoms, 4 water molecules are added on RHS.

O(l)
To equalize the number of electrons, the oxidation half reaction is multiplied by 5 and the reduction half reaction is multiplied by 2.
5SO
