The highest Mn fluoride is MnF(4) where ...

The highest Mn fluoride is `MnF_(4)` where as the highest oxide is `Mn_(2)O_(7)` Why?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The ability of oxygen to stabilize the high oxidation states exceeds that of fluoride. Thus the highest Mn fluoride is `MnF_(4)` where as highest oxide is `Mn_(2)O_(7)`.
