For M2+M and M3+M2+ systems the E∘ values for some metals are as follows: Cr2+Cr−0.9V;Cr3+Cr2+−0.4VMn2+Mn−1.2V;Mn3+Mn2++1.5VFe2+Fe−0.4V;Fe3+Fe2++0.8V Use this data to comment upon (i) The stability of Fe3+ in acid solution as compared to that of Cr3+ or Mn3+ The ease with which iron can be oxidised as compared to a similar process of either chromium or manganese metal.
