Which one of the following species is stable in aqueous solution?

Options:

Answer:
B
Solution:

In MnO42-, manganese is in +6 oxidation state, which is having the highest stability.
MnO4-2⇒​x+4 -2=-2
x=6
Cu+x=+1  It will disproportionate in aqueous solution.
Cr+2x=+2 It will also disproportionate in aqueous solution.
MnO4-3x+4-2=-3 Mn is not stable in +5 oxidation state.
x=5
Higher the oxidation state, more is the stability of the species.
