Question
Write note on oxides and oxoanions of 3d transition metals.

Answer

→ The ability of oxygen to stabilize the high oxidation states of metal than fluorine is higher because it forms a multiple bonds with a metal.
→ The metal oxide in lower oxidation state is basic while in higher oxidation state are acidic.
→ The metal oxides having metals in intermediate oxidation states are amphoteric.
e.g.

→ In the covalent oxide $Mn _2 O _7$, each Mn is tetrahedrally surrounded by O 's including a $Mn - O - Mn$ bridge. The tetrahedral $\left[ MO _4\right]^{ n -}$ ions are known for $V ^{ V }, Cr ^{ VI }, Mn ^{ V }, Mn ^{ VI }$ and $Mn ^{ VII }$.
