Q.Standard reduction potential EE^\circ for Mn3+/Mn2+Mn^{3+}/Mn^{2+} is high (+1.57 V+1.57 \text{ V}) compared to Cr3+/Cr2+Cr^{3+}/Cr^{2+} (+0.41 V+0.41 \text{ V}). This is because:

a
Mn2+Mn^{2+} has a stable d5d^5 configuration
b
Cr3+Cr^{3+} is unstable
c
Mn3+Mn^{3+} is more stable than Mn2+Mn^{2+}
d
Ionization enthalpy of CrCr is high

Correct Answer: Option A

The correct solution involves applying the fundamental concept to derive the final value step by step...
