Answer:
Manganese is a transition metal, meaning that it can have more than one valence state. Its electron configuration is [Ar] 3d5 4s2. The two electrons in the 4s orbital are obviousvalence electrons, so a valence state of 2+ is possible. Somanganese can have as many as 7 valence electrons.

Answer:
This means that manganese (Mn group-7) has the electron configuration [Ar]4s²3d⁵ and 7 valence electrons, this can hv valence from +1–7 ,but generally manganese in its compounds has valency of +2,+4,+7 due to corresponding stable electronic configuration
