I can balance redox equations fairly easily, but I just can't seem to finish the equation...
For example, MnO₄^- + H₂O₂  Mn²⁺ +  ??
I know the full equation, but I don't know what steps to take to get there
Any help would be very appreciated! 
               

[AWK]

MnO₄^-    Mn²⁺
this half reaction needs [H⁺] or [H₃O⁺] on the left side
H₂O₂ is oxidized  then forms water H₂O and oxygen O₂
That's all.
But this reaction has hidden agenda. Mn²⁺ catalytically decomposes H₂O₂. This means you can add hydrogen peroxide on the left side obtaining additional water and oxygen on the right side. In this manner you can form infinity numbers of balanced reactions.

Thank you so much for your *delete me*! I understand it now
