Alkaline oxidative fusion of MnO2{MnO}_{2} gives "AA " which on electrolytic oxidation in alkaline solution produces B.AB . Aand BB respectively are:

Options

  1. AMn2O7{Mn}_{2}{O}_{7} and MnO4−{MnO}_{4}^{-}
  2. BMnO42−{MnO}_{4}^{2 -} and MnO4−{MnO}_{4}^{-}
  3. CMn2O3{Mn}_{2}{O}_{3} and MnO42−{MnO}_{4}^{2 -}
  4. DMnO42−{MnO}_{4}^{2 -} and Mn2O7{Mn}_{2}{O}_{7}

Correct answer

B. MnO42−{MnO}_{4}^{2 -} and MnO4−{MnO}_{4}^{-}

Step-by-step solution

The alkaline oxidative fusion is a redox reaction (undergoes both oxidation and reduction simultaneously) in which a compound undergoes fusion with itself only, in the presence of a base or an alkaline solution. 

Electrolysis is a chemical process where an electric current is passed through an electrolyte, causing a non-spontaneous chemical reaction to occur, typically resulting in the decomposition of the electrolyte into its constituent elements or ions.

Alkaline oxidative fusion of MnO2{MnO}_{2} :
2MnO2+4OH−+O2→2MnO42−+2H2O2{MnO}_{2} + 4{OH}^{-} + {O}_{2} \to 2{MnO}_{4}^{2 -} + 2{H}_{2}O

Electrolytic oxidation of MnO42−{MnO}_{4}^{2 -} in alkaline medium.
MnO42−→MnO4−+e−{MnO}_{4}^{2 -} \to {MnO}_{4}^{-} + {e}^{-}

Hence, the answer is option B.
