Answer:
Explanation:
Manganese has atomic number 25, meaning its atoms have 25 protons in their nuclei. A neutral manganese atom also has 25 electrons. However, the manganese 3+ ion, Mn3+, has 22 electrons. This gives it 3 more protons than electrons, which gives it the 3+ charge.
The electron configuration in noble gas shorthand for a neutral Mn atom is [Ar]3d54s2. The electron configuration for a Mn3+ ion is [Ar]3d4. The two 4s valence electrons and one 3d electron is removed.
