Manganese carbonate is a compound with the chemical formula Mn CO 3. Manganese carbonate occurs naturally as the mineral rhodochrosite but it is typically produced industrially. It is a pale pink, water-insoluble solid. Approximately 20,000 metric tonnes were produced in 2005. [3]
The carbonate ions (CO 2− 3) are arranged in a triangular planar configuration, and the manganese ions (Mn 2+) are surrounded by six oxygen ions in an octahedral arrangement. The MnO 6 octahedra and CO 3 triangles are linked together to form a three-dimensional structure. Crystal twinning is often present.
The structure of HMn(CO) 5 has been studied by many methods including X-ray diffraction, neutron diffraction, and electron diffraction. [5] HMn(CO) 5 can be related to the structure of a hexacarbonyl complex such as Mn(CO) + 6, and therefore has similar properties. [6] The compound has octahedral symmetry [7] and its molecular point group is C ...
Dimanganese decacarbonyl, [3] which has the chemical formula Mn 2 (CO) 10, is a binary bimetallic carbonyl complex centered around the first row transition metal manganese.The first reported synthesis of Mn 2 (CO) 10 was in 1954 at Linde Air Products Company and was performed by Brimm, Lynch, and Sesny. [4]
Manganese(II) acetate are chemical compounds with the formula Mn(CH 3 CO 2) 2 ·(H 2 O)n where n = 0, 2, 4. These materials are white or pale pink solids. Some of these compounds are used as a catalyst and as fertilizer. [3]
Manganese dioxide is the inorganic compound with the formula MnO 2 . This blackish or brown solid occurs naturally as the mineral pyrolusite , which is the main ore of manganese and a component of manganese nodules .
Kutnohorite is a rare calcium manganese carbonate mineral with magnesium and iron that is a member of the dolomite group. It forms a series with dolomite, and with ankerite.The end member formula is CaMn 2+ (CO 3) 2, [6] but Mg 2+ and Fe 2+ commonly substitute for Mn 2+, with the manganese content varying from 38% to 84%, [2] so the formula Ca(Mn 2+,Mg,Fe 2+)(CO 3) 2 better represents the species.
Manganese is a chemical element; it has symbol Mn and atomic number 25. It is a hard, brittle, silvery metal, often found in minerals in combination with iron . Manganese was first isolated in the 1770s.
