  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. Potassium manganate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potassium_manganate

    Potassium permanganate will decompose into potassium manganate, manganese dioxide and oxygen gas: 2 KMnO 4 → K 2 MnO 4 + MnO 2 + O 2 This reaction is a laboratory method to prepare oxygen, but produces samples of potassium manganate contaminated with MnO 2 .

  4. Permanganate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permanganate

    A permanganate can oxidize an amine to a nitro compound, [7] [8] an alcohol to a ketone, [9] an 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 cyclic Mn(V) species: [15]

  5. Permanganic acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permanganic_acid

    As a strong acid, HMnO 4 is deprotonated to form the intensely purple coloured permanganates. Potassium permanganate , KMnO 4 , is a widely used, versatile and powerful oxidising agent. Permanganic acid solutions are unstable, and gradually decompose into manganese dioxide , oxygen, and water, with initially formed manganese dioxide catalyzing ...

  6. Glycerol and potassium permanganate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glycerol_and_potassium...

    Crystalline potassium permanganate (KMnO 4) is placed in an evaporating dish. A depression is made at the center of the permanganate powder and glycerol liquid is added to it. The white smoke-like vapor produced by the reaction is a mixture of carbon dioxide gas and water vapor.

  7. Chemical chameleon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_chameleon

    The chemical chameleon reaction shows the process in reverse, by reducing violet potassium permanganate first to green potassium manganate and eventually to brown manganese dioxide: [1] [2] [5] KMnO 4 (violet) → K 2 MnO 4 (green) → MnO 2 (brown/yellow suspension) Blue potassium hypomanganate may also form as an intermediate.

  9. Soil formation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soil_formation

    Hydrolysis is the transformation of minerals into polar molecules by the splitting of intervening water. This results in soluble acid-base pairs. For example, the hydrolysis of orthoclase-feldspar transforms it to acid silicate clay and basic potassium hydroxide, both of which are more soluble. [31]
