Which of the following equations is properly balanced for both atoms and net charge in acidic solution? (a) MnO4−+8H++5Fe2+→Mn2++2H2O+5Fe3+\mathrm{MnO_4^- + 8H^+ + 5Fe^{2+} \rightarrow Mn^{2+} + 2H_2O + 5Fe^{3+}} (b) MnO4−+3SO32−+2H+→Mn2++3SO42−+H2O\mathrm{MnO_4^- + 3SO_3^{2-} + 2H^+ \rightarrow Mn^{2+} + 3SO_4^{2-} + H_2O} (c) MnO4−+8H++5Fe2+→Mn2++4H2O+5Fe3+\mathrm{MnO_4^- + 8H^+ + 5Fe^{2+} \rightarrow Mn^{2+} + 4H_2O + 5Fe^{3+}} (d) Cr2O72−+3Fe2++14H+→2Cr3++7H2O+3Fe3+\mathrm{Cr_2O_7^{2-} + 3Fe^{2+} + 14H^+ \rightarrow 2Cr^{3+} + 7H_2O + 3Fe^{3+}}
