The value determined is known as the permanganate value. In analytical chemistry, a standardized aqueous solution of KMnO 4 is sometimes used as an oxidizing titrant for redox titrations (permanganometry). As potassium permanganate is titrated, the solution becomes a light shade of purple, which darkens as excess of the titrant is added to the ...
It is standardized as ASTM D93, EN ISO 2719 and IP 34 [1] The United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has also published Method 1010A: Test Methods for Flash Point by Pensky-Martens Closed Cup Tester, part of Test Methods for Evaluating Solid Waste, Physical/Chemical Methods, which references the ASTM standard series
The permanganate index is an assessment of water quality. It involves the detection of oxidation by potassium permanganate in an acid medium under hot conditions. The method is to heat a sample in a boiling water-bath with a known amount of potassium permanganate and sulfuric acid for a fixed period time (10 min).
A permanganate can oxidize an amine to a nitro compound, [7] [8] a secondary alcohol to a ketone, [9] a primary alcohol or aldehyde to a carboxylic acid, [10] [11] a terminal alkene to a carboxylic acid, [12] oxalic acid to carbon dioxide, [13] and an alkene to a diol. [14] This list is not exhaustive. In alkene oxidations one intermediate is a ...
In the classical determination of ferrous ion with permanganate, the reaction enthalpy is more than double that of a strong acid/strong base titration:Δ 0 H r = −123.9 kJ/mol of Fe. The determination of hydrogen peroxide by permanganate titration is even more strongly exothermic at Δ 0 H r = −149.6 kJ/mol H 2 O 2
A number of states in the United States have adopted their own test methods but they are based on ASTM methods. [3] Although there are similarities with the method it is not the same as an acid value. ASTM D2073 - This is a potentiometric method. [4] ASTM D2074-07; ASTM D2896 - potentiometric method with perchloric acid. [5] ASTM D6979-03
Potentiometric titrations were first used for redox titrations by Crotogino. He titrated halide ions with potassium permanganate using a shiny platinum electrode and a calomel electrode. He said that if an oxidizing agent is added to a reducing solution then the equilibrium between the reducing substance and reaction product will shift towards ...
Potassium permanganate (KMnO 4) is a dark violet colored powder. Its reaction with glycerol (commonly known as glycerin or glycerine) (C 3 H 5 (OH) 3) is highly exothermic, resulting rapidly in a flame, along with the formation of carbon dioxide and water vapour: 14 KMnO 4 (s) + 4 C 3 H 5 (OH) 3 (l) → 7 K 2 CO 3 (s) + 7 Mn 2 O 3 (s) + 5 CO 2 ...
