Question

kmno4 on heating alone decomposes as

Answer 1

When we heat potassium permanganate, the equation of the decomposition of it is: 2KMnOX4→ΔKX2MnOX4+MnOX2+OX2 So what will happen to potassium manganate

Answer 2

Answer:

The decomposition of KMnO₄ alone results in K₂MnO₄ (Potassium manganate), MnO₂ (manganese dioxide),  and O₂ (oxygen).

Explanation:

• A German-Dutch scientist, Johann Rudolf Glauber, was the first to discover the manufacture of KMnO4 in 1659.
• This water-soluble chemical KMnO₄  encompasses two ions: permanganate and potassium.
• Its molar mass is 158.03 g/mol.
• It is regarded as a powerful oxidizing agent.

The heating of KMnO₄ alone gives  Potassium manganate (K₂MnO₄) manganese dioxide (MnO₂),  and oxygen (O₂).
