Why d3 is more stable than d5 ?

Ans= in d3 configuration 3 electron ae present in t2g


whereas in d5 3 electrons are present in t2g and 2 electrons
are present in eg which will cause unstability.

Ans = cr +2 is better or stronger reducing agent then iron +2


on oxidation from cr +2 to cr+3 the configuration achieved by
it is d3 whereas on oxidation fe+2 to fe+3 the configuration
achieved is d5 which is less stable than d3.

Ans = as fluorine and oxygen are most electronegative


elements hence are capable to shift maximum number of
electron from trasition element away from them.

NOTE = Out of fluorine and oxygen oxygen shift more


electron towards it Because of the tendency of forming
multiple bond which is not present in fluorine
Ans = chromium in +2 oxidise itself to +3 and achieve d3
configuration which is highly stable hence act as reducing
agent but manganese +3 reduce itself to +2 to have d5
configuration because to achieve d3 configuration
manganese +3 should convert into +4 which requires large
amount of energy as with increase in charge on cation
ionization energy increases.

Ans = Copper in +1 have d10 configuration due to which


(energy require to dissolve 1 mole of substance in water is
known as hydration ) its hydration energy is quite high and
hence to decrease the hydration energy or to get soluble in
water easily it attains d9 configuration by having copper +2
state.
