Question: Consider the following half-reactions: MnO-4 (aq) + 8H+(aq) + 5e- Mn2+(aq) + 4H2O(l) NO-3(aq) + 4H+(aq) + 3e- NO(g) + 2H2O(l) Predict whether

Consider the following half-reactions:
MnO-4 (aq) + 8H+(aq) + 5e- → Mn2+(aq) + 4H2O(l)
NO-3(aq) + 4H+(aq) + 3e- → NO(g) + 2H2O(l)
Predict whether NO3- ions will oxidize Mn2+ to MnO4- under standard-state conditions
