In the reaction: MnO₂ + 4HCl MnCl₂ + Cl₂ + 2H₂O, the equivalent weight of HCl is

Options:

Answer:
C
Solution:

Mn(+4) Mn(+2) takes 2 e⁻; 2 of the 4 mol HCl are oxidized to Cl₂ and 2 mol act as acid. Thus 4 mol HCl are consumed per 2 e⁻ transferred, i.e. 2 mol per equivalent. Eq wt = 2M. Hence (c).
