=> Manganese has atomic number 25, it is a transition element lying in d-block of the periodic table.
=> Thus, it has multiple oxidation states.
=> It can have the following oxidation states: +2, +3, +4, +5 , +6, +7.
=> Mn2+ is the most stable and the least oxidizing of due to exactly half-filled 3d-orbital of higher stability.
