Detailed Solution

(a). In aqueous solution Cr2+ (3d4) acts as a reducing agent, oxidising itself to Cr3+(3d3) that  gives a completely half-filled t2g level in octahedral ligand field of H2O.

(b). Mn3+(3d4) is an oxidising agent as it is reduced to Mn2+(3d5), a completely half-filled stable configuration.

(c). Both Cr2+ and Mn3+ have d4 configuration.

(d). 3d4Cr2+ and 3d4Cr2+aqR.ACr3+aq+e

Hence (d) is wrong statement.
