Manganese VI has ability to disproportionate in acidic solution. The difference in oxidation states of two ions it forms in acidic solution is
Correct answer
3
Step-by-step solution
In acidic solution Mn(VI) become unstable relative to Mn(VII) and Mn(IV) 3 MnO 4 2 - + 4 H + → 2 MnO 4 - + MnO 2 + 2 H 2 O So difference in oxidation state of product ions of Mn is = 3
