Four statement of Cr and Mn are given below.
(P). `Cr^(2+)` and `Mn^(3+)` have the same electronic configuration.
(Q). `Cr^(2+)` is a reducing agent while `Mn^(3+)` in an oxidizing agent.
(S). Both Cr and Mn are oxidizing agent.
The correct statement are:

Four statements for Cr and Mn are given below: (i) Cr^(2+) and Mn^(3+) have the same electronic configuration. (ii) Cr^(2+) is a reducing agent while Mn^(3+) is an oxidising agent. (iii) Cr^(3+) is an oxidizing agent while Mn^(3+) is a reducing agent. (iv). both Cr and Mn are oxidizing agents. The correct statemetns are

With the same d-orbital configuration, Cr^(2+) is a reducing agent while Mn^(3+) is an oxidising agent.Explain.

Give the electronic configuration of Mn^(2+) and Cr^(3+) ions .

Why Cr^(2+) is strongly reducing while Mn^(3+) is strongly oxidising ?

With 3d^(4) configuration, Cr^(2+) acts as a reducing agent but Mn^(3+) acts as an oxidising agent. Explain.
