Answer:

Mn  Mn2+ + 2 e-

Since manganese is a transition metal, it is not possible to predict its ion charge from its group number. The charge on the ion is given by the roman numeral in its name. The charge is therefore +2

The symbol for the manganese(II) ion is therefore Mn2+ .

Mn has an atomic number of 25 , with 25 protons and 25 electrons in the neutral atom. In order for the ion to carry a charge of +2 it must have 2 more protons than it does electrons, so the atom must lose 2 electrons .

The coordination compound Co3[Cr(CN)6]2 contains Co2+ cations and a complex anion. What is the likely oxidation state for Cr in
otez555 [7]

Answer:

-3

Explanation:

The oxidation state or oxidation number of an atom is the total number of electrons that an atom either gains or loses in order to form a chemical bond with another atom.

The complex anion here is [Cr(CN)6]3-.

Now, as the oxidation state of CN or cyanide ligand is -1, and if we suppose the oxidation state of Cr to be 'x', then; x - 6 = -3 (overall charge on the anion),

so x= +3. Hence the oxidation state of Chromium in this complex hexacyanochromium (III) anion comes out to be -3.
