JEE Main 2024 — 4 April, Shift 1 — Question 79

Consider the following reaction MnO2+KOH+O2→ A+H2O\mathrm{MnO}_{2}+\mathrm{KOH}+\mathrm{O}_{2} \rightarrow \mathrm{~A}+\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}. Product ' AA ' in neutral or acidic medium

disproportionate to give products ' B ' and ' C ' along with water. The sum of spin-only magnetic moment values of B and C

is \qquad BM. (nearest integer) (Given atomic number of Mn is 25 )

Answer: 4

Numerical answer — enter this value.
