For the reaction: MnBr₂ + PbO₂ + HNO₃ HMnO₄ + Pb(BrO₃)₂ + Pb(NO₃)₂ + H₂O (Atomic masses: Mn = 55, Br = 80, Pb = 208)

The equivalent weight of PbO₂ is

Options:

Answer:
A
Solution:

Pb in PbO₂ is +4 and ends as Pb²⁺ in Pb(BrO₃)₂ and Pb(NO₃)₂, gaining 2 e⁻, so n-factor = 2. M(PbO₂) = 208 + 32 = 240. E = 240/2 = 120, matching (a).
