Explanation:

:

Ferrous ion

is oxidized:

And

permanganate ion

is reduced:

For each half-equation charge and mass are balanced ABSOLUTELY, and thus it reflects stoichiometry. TO produce a balanced equation, we adds

(

i

)

and

(

i

i

)

in such a way as to remove the electrons as virtual particles of convenience...

i.e.

The which is balanced with respect to mass and charge....and note that the colour change of the reaction, deep-purple permanganate to almost colourless

, would give us a visual gauge on the extent of reaction.
