What is the minimum number of moles of potassium permanganate that would be required to completely oxidize 1.0 moles of benzaldehyde?

Mole ratio :

5 C₆H₆CHO + 2 KMnO₄ + 6 H⁺ = 5 C₆H₆COOH + 2 Mn²⁺ + 3 H₂O + 2 K⁺

5 moles C₆H₆CHO 2 moles KMnO₄
1.0 moles C₆H₆CHO ( moles of KMnO₄ )

moles of KMnO₄ = 1.0 x 2 / 5

moles of KMnO₄ = 2 / 5

= 0.40 moles of KMnO4

hope this helps!

4- c, because all matter stays the same no matter what. it is still there. 5- b, because matter is known as mass. 6-c because, flammability is a chemical property. malleability is changing the shape of an object.
