Mn2+ compounds are more stable than Fe2+ compounds towards oxidation in their +3 state because :

1. 3d5 configuration is more stable than 3d6 configuration.
2. 3d6 configuration is more stable than 3d5 configuration.
3. 3p5 configuration is less stable than 3p6 configuration.
4. 3p6 configuration is less stable than 3p5 configuration.

The +2 oxidation state becomes more stable in the first half of the first-row transition elements with increasing atomic number because:

1. s-Orbital is becoming more and more half-filled.
2. f-Orbital is becoming more and more half-filled.
3. d-Orbital is becoming more and more half-filled. ​​​​​
4. p-Orbital is becoming more and more half-filled.

The d-block elements that may not be regarded as transition elements are :

1. Mn, Fe, Ni because these have partially filled d-subshell.
2. Mn, Fe, Ni because these have completely filled d-subshell.
3. Zn, Cd, and Hg because these have completely filled d-subshell.
4. Zn, Cd, and Hg because these have partially filled d-subshell.

The "Disproportionation" reaction means that :

1. A relatively less stable oxidation state undergoes an oxidation−reduction reaction.
2. A relatively more stable oxidation state undergoes an oxidation−reduction reaction.
3. A relatively less stable oxidation state undergoes a hydrogenation reaction.
4. A relatively more stable oxidation state undergoes a hydrogenation reaction.
