EoRP and their respective half reactions for some changes are given below:
(a) MnO−4(aq)+8H++5e→Mn2+(aq)+4H2O(l); Eo=+1.52V
(b) MnO2−4(aq)+4H++2e→MnO2(s)+2H2O(l); Eo=+2.26V
(c) 2MnO−4(aq)+2e→2MnO2−4(aq); Eo=+0.56V (acid med.)
(d) Mn3++e→Mn2+; Eo=+1.51V (acid med.)
(e) Mn4++e→Mn3+; Eo=0.95V (acid med.)
The most stable oxidation state of Mn is :
