    Why is the E^(@) values for Mn^(3+)//Mn^(2+) couple much more positive than for Cr^(3+) // Cr^(2+) or Fe^(3+)//Fe^(2+)

    Why is the value for (Mn^(3+))/(Mn^(2+)) couple much more positive than that for (Cr^(3+))/(Cr^(2+)) or (Fe^(3+))/(Fe^(2+)) ? Explain

    Wxplain why E^(@) for Mn^(3+)//Mn^(2+) couple is more positive than that for Fe^(3+)//Fe^(2+) (At. Nos. Mn=25,Fe=26)?

    Assign reasons for the following : (i) The enthalpies of atomisation of transition elements are high. (ii) The transition metals and many of their compounds act as good catalyst. (iii) From element to element the actinoid contraction is greater than the lanthanoid contraction. (iv) The E^(@) value for the Mn^(3+)//Mn^(2+) couple is much more positive than that for Cr^(3+)//Cr^(2+) . (v) Scandium (Z = 21) does not exhibit variable oxidation states and yet it is regarded as transition element.

    The correct order of decreasing third ionisation enthalpy of Ti, V, Cr, Mn is :
