Which one of the following ions is the most stable in aqueous solution?
(At. No. Ti = 22, V = 23, Cr = 24, Mn = 25)
(At. No. Ti = 22, V = 23, Cr = 24, Mn = 25)
- AV3+
- BTi3+
- CMn3+
- DCr3+

Correct answer: C
The exactly half-filled and completely filled
d-orbital have extra stability and stability is directly
proportional to number of unpaired electrons.
Mn+3 (22) = 3d44s0
(4 unpaired electrons)
So, Mn3+ ion is most stable in aqueous solution.
Rest all have less number of unpaired electrons.
