K₂SO₄ + MnSO₄ + Fe₂(SO₄_)3 + H₂O​

Options:
A) K₂SO₄, MnSO₄, Fe₂(SO₄)₃, H₂O
B) K₂SO₄, MnSO₄, H₂O
C) K₂SO₄, MnSO₄, Fe₂(SO₄)₃
D) K₂SO₄, MnSO₄, Fe₂(SO₄)₃, H₂O, FeSO₄

Answer 1

The correct products of the reaction between KMnO4, FeSO4, and H2SO4 are K2SO4, MnSO4, Fe2(SO4)3, and H2O, which corresponds to Option A.

Step-by-step explanation:

The balanced chemical equation for the reaction between KMnO4, FeSO4, and H2SO4 is:

MnO4-(aq) + 5Fe2+(aq) + 8H+(aq) → Mn2+(aq) + 5Fe3+(aq) + 4H2O(l)

The correct products of the reaction are potassium sulfate (K2SO4), manganese(II) sulfate (MnSO4), iron(III) sulfate (Fe2(SO4)3), and water (H2O). Therefore, the answer is Option A: K2SO4, MnSO4, Fe2(SO4)3, H2O. This reaction is an example of an oxidation-reduction reaction, where KMnO4 acts as an oxidizing agent and FeSO4 acts as a reducing agent.
