## Oxidation Numbers and Frost Diagram for Manganese**Question:** What is the oxidation number of Mn in the product when Mn is used as a reducing agent in a basic solution?### Frost Diagram Explanation:The Frost diagram for manganese illustrates the relative stability of manganese in different oxidation states. This diagram plots the standard Gibbs free energy per mole of electrons (nE°) against the oxidation number.- **Axes:** - *Y-Axis (nE°/V):* Represents the free energy per mole of electrons. - *X-Axis (Oxidation number):* Represents the oxidation states of manganese, ranging from 0 to 7.- **Key Points and Lines:** - In the diagram, there are lines for two different pH values: - **Blue Line (pH = 0):** Acidic conditions. - **Red Line (pH = 14):** Basic conditions. - Both lines start from Mn (oxidation number 0) and pass through various manganese compounds: - Mn(OH)₂, Mn²⁺, Mn₃⁺, Mn₂O₃, MnO₂, H₃MnO₄, and others. - In basic conditions (red line), MnO₄²⁻ appears as a stable state at higher oxidation numbers.### Conclusion:Under basic conditions, manganese typically stabilizes at an oxidation state where the compound MnO₄²⁻ is prevalent. Therefore, when Mn is used as a reducing agent in a basic solution, it is likely to result in MnO₄²⁻ with an oxidation number of 6.
