  2. Potassium permanganate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potassium_permanganate

    Addition of concentrated sulfuric acid to potassium permanganate gives Mn 2 O 7. [76] Although no reaction may be apparent, the vapor over the mixture will ignite paper impregnated with alcohol. Potassium permanganate and sulfuric acid react to produce some ozone, which has a high oxidizing power and rapidly oxidizes the alcohol, causing it to ...

  3. Permanganate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permanganate

    4, the conjugate base of permanganic acid. Because the manganese atom has a +7 oxidation state, the permanganate(VII) ion is a strong oxidising agent. The ion is a transition metal ion with a tetrahedral structure. [2] Permanganate solutions are purple in colour and are stable in neutral or slightly alkaline media. The exact chemical reaction ...

  4. Frost diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frost_diagram

    The Frost diagram is also a useful tool for comparing the trends of standard potentials (slope) of acidic and basic solutions. The pure, neutral element transitions to different compounds depending whether the species is in acidic and basic pHs. Though the value and amount of oxidation states remain unchanged, the free energies can vary greatly.

  5. Permanganic acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permanganic_acid

    Permanganic acid (or manganic(VII) acid) is the inorganic compound with the formula H MnO 4 and various hydrates. [3] This strong oxoacid has been isolated as its dihydrate. It is the conjugate acid of permanganate salts. It is the subject of few publications and its characterization as well as its uses are very limited.

  6. Manganate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manganate

    Structure of manganate. In inorganic nomenclature, a manganate is any negatively charged molecular entity with manganese as the central atom. [1] However, the name is usually used to refer to the tetraoxidomanganate(2−) anion, MnO 2− 4, also known as manganate(VI) because it contains manganese in the +6 oxidation state. [1]

  7. Hummers' method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hummers'_Method

    The basic chemical reaction involved in the Hummers' method is the oxidation of graphite, introducing molecules of oxygen to the pure carbon graphene. The reaction occurs between the graphene and the concentrated sulfuric acid with the potassium permanganate and sodium nitrate acting as catalysts.

  8. Basic oxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basic_oxide

    An oxide is a chemical compound in which one or more oxygen atoms combined with another element, such as H 2 O or CO 2.Based on their acid-base characteristics, oxides can be classified into four categories: acidic oxides, basic oxides, and amphoteric oxides and neutral oxides.

  9. Ferrate (VI) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ferrate(VI)

    It is photosensitive, contributes a pale violet colour to compounds and solutions containing it and is one of the strongest water-stable oxidizing species known. Although it is classified as a weak base , concentrated solutions containing ferrate(VI) are corrosive and attack the skin and are only stable at high pH .
