In 3d series , Mn shows highest oxidation state . Why ?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To understand why manganese (Mn) shows the highest oxidation state in the 3d series, we can break down the explanation into several steps: ### Step 1: Identify the Atomic Number and Electronic Configuration - Manganese has an atomic number of 25. - Its electronic configuration is \( [Ar] 3d^5 4s^2 \). ### Step 2: Analyze the Electron Configuration - The electron configuration indicates that manganese has 5 electrons in the 3d subshell and 2 electrons in the 4s subshell. ...
