19355.

Why are Mn^(2+) compounds more stable than Fe^(2+) towards oxidation to their +3 state ?

Answer»

SOLUTION :Electronic configuration of `Mn^(2+)` is `3d^(5)` which is half-filled and hence stable. THEREFORE, third ionisation enthalpy is very high, i.e., third ELECTRON cannot be lost EASILY as it WOULD affect the stability of `3d^(5)` configuration. In case of `Fe^(2+)`, electronic configuration is `3d^(6)`. Hence, it can lose one electron easily to give the stable configuration `3d^(5)`.

Why aluminium can be used as a reducing agent for the reduction of chronic oxide?

Answer»

Solution :Ellingham diagram is used to predict THERMODYNAMIC FEASIBILITY of reduction of oxides of one metalby another metal.Any metal can reduce the oxides of other metals that AR located above it in the diagram .for example ,in the Ellingham diagram ,for the formation of chromium oxide lies above that of the aluminium,meaning that `Al_(2)O_(3)` is more stable than`Cr_(2)O_(3)`.Hence aluminium can be used as a reducing agent for the reduction of chromic oxide.However ,it cannot be used to redice the oxides of magnesium and calcium which occupy LOWER position than aluminium oxide.
