21. How would you account for the following:

(i) Of the species, is strongly reducing while manganese(III) is strongly oxidising.

(ii) Cobalt(II) is stable in aqueous solution but in the presence of complexing reagents it is easily oxidised.

(iii) The configuration is very unstable in ions.

22. What is meant by ‘disproportionation’? Give two examples of disproportionation reaction in aqueous solution.

(i)

Cr(V) is oxidized to Cr(VI) and reduced to Cr(III).
