Question

In the given reaction aMNO2+bAl_____CMn+dAl2O3 A)out of Mn and Al, which is more reactive and why ? B) which is reducing agent? C) what would be the value of cofficient a,b,c and d

Answer 1

Answer:

1. Al leads Mn in the ease of oxidation or Al is more strongly reducing than Mn hence Al is more reactive than manganese.  Lower the ionization energy, more is the reactivity.
2. AL(aluminium) is the reducing agent . Al is more reactive than Mn because Al reduces Oxygen from Mn.
