MnO₂(s) + HSO₄^-(aq) + H₂O what is the sum of ALL the coefficients in the equation? (Remember to include values of 1 in your summation.) Hint: Start by balancing each half-reaction.

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The balanced equation is: 2H⁺ + HSO₃^- + 2MnO₄^- → 2MnO₂ + HSO₄^- + H₂O. The sum of the coefficients is 2 + 1 + 2 + 2 + 1 + 1 = 13.
