Assertion :

E^{\circ}

for

{Mn}^{3+} / {Mn}^{2+}

is more positive than

{Cr}^3 / {Cr}^{2+}

.

Reason : The third ionization energy of

{Mn}

is larger than that of

{Cr}

View answer and explanation

Correct option: A

If both Assertion and Reason are correct and the Reason is a correct explanation of the Assertion.

Option A is correct because both the assertion and the reason are correct, and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion. The higher third ionization energy of Mn leads to a more positive E° for Mn3+/Mn2+.
