Question

Why the particle of potassium permanganate are spread more than sugar water

Answer 1

Potassium permanganate is made up of tiny particles. This is because saltparticles fitted into some spaces between the water molecules. Hence the particles of the solution are morepacked together, reducing the volume of the solution. This also indicates that the particles of water and those of salt differ in size.If a solid sample of Potassium permanganateis placed in water, the water molecules will interact with the Potassium cations and thepermanganate anions held in the crystal to break the ionic bonds that hold the crystaltogether. This is a process of dissolving thecrystal into solution.

Answer 2

Can explain in detail as follows:

When the KMnO4 crystal enters the water, the water molecules immediately create electrostatic attraction on the outer surface of KMnO4 crystals. These electrostatic charges break the linkage of the KMnO4 crystal from the outside. K {+} and MnO4 ions after breaking off the chaotic link between water molecules. This process takes place until the bonds in KMnO4 crystals are completely broken (ie KMnO4 hydrolyzed).

= KMnO4 can dissolve in water
