Which oxide of manganese is most acidic in nature?A. MnOB. `Mn_(2)O_(7)`C. `Mn_(2)O_(3)`D. `MnO_(2)` |
|
Answer» Correct Answer - B Transition metl oxide with highest oxidation states is most acidic in character because of the very less difference in the values of electronegativity between `Mn^(7+) and O^(2-)`, and the decreasing order of acidic character is `overset(+7)(Mn_(2))O_(7) gt overset(+4)(Mn)O_(2) gt overset(+3)(Mn_(2))O_(3) gt overset(+2)(Mn)O`. |
