Sagot :

The answer to whether the given compounds are manganese(ii) or manganese(iii) are respectively; manganese(iii), manganese(ii),manganese(ii), manganese(iii), manganese(ii), manganese(iii)

Cations and Anions Differentiation

The compounds are;

  • MnN
  • MnO
  • MnBr₂
  • Mn₂S₃
  • Mn₃P₂
  • MnI₃

For us to determine the state of the manganese ions, we will look at the anions linked to it.

MnN; Here, on manganese the charge is +3 so it is manganese(iii).

MnO;  Here, manganese has a charge of +2 and so it is manganese(ii)

MnBr₂; Here, Br has a charge of +2 and so it is manganese(ii)

Mn₂S₃; Here S has a charge of +3 so is manganese(iii).

Mn₃P₂; Here, Manganese has a charge of +2 and so is manganese(ii)

MnI₃; here manganese has a charge of +3 and so is manganese(iii).
