MnO^-₄  ions are reduced in acidic condition to Mn²⁺ ions whereas they are reduced in neutral condition to MnO₂. The oxidation of 25 mL of a solution X containing Fe²⁺ ions required in acidic condition 20 mL of a solution Y containing MnO^-₄ ions. What volume of solution Y would be required to oxidise 25 mL of a solution X containing Fe²⁺ ions in neutral condition?
