(c) In Mn d configuration leads to extrastability of half filled configuration, so Mn / Mn (d ) tends to get
converted to stable d5, configuration of Mn2+, by accepting an electron so Mn3+/Mn2+ redox couple has more
positive potential than

couple

(d) Due to more negative enthalpy of hydration of Cu2+ (aq) than Cu+(aq) which compensates for second ionisation
enthalpy of copper.

(e) In the third transition series after lanthanum there is lanthanoid contraction, due to ineffective shielding by
intervening f- orbital electrons and hence second and third transition series elements have similar
atomic radii.
