Mn2+ compounds are more stable than Fe2+ compounds towards oxidation in their +3 state because :

1. 3d5 configuration is more stable than 3d6 configuration.
2. 3d6 configuration is more stable than 3d5 configuration.
3. 3p5 configuration is less stable than 3p6 configuration.
4. 3p6 configuration is less stable than 3p5 configuration.
