Vedclass · Accepted Answer

$MnO_4^{2-}$

Vedclass · Answer

(A) $LMCT$ (Ligand to Metal Charge Transfer) causes intense color in oxoanions of transition metals. $MnO_4^{2-}$ (manganate ion) has $Mn$ in the $+6$ oxidation state,which corresponds to a $3d^1$ electronic configuration. Since it has one unpaired electron,it is paramagnetic. Additionally,it exhibits color due to $LMCT$ from $O^{2-}$ to $Mn^{+6}$. In contrast,$MnO_4^{-}$,$Cr_2O_7^{2-}$,and $CrO_4^{2-}$ have $Mn^{+7}$ $(3d^0)$ and $Cr^{+6}$ $(3d^0)$ respectively,which are diamagnetic.

Which of the following species exhibits both $LMCT$ and paramagnetism?
