Manganese(III) oxide is formed by the redox reaction in an alkaline cell: 2 MnO 2 + Zn → Mn 2 O 3 + ZnO [citation needed] Manganese(III) oxide Mn 2 O 3 must not be confused with MnOOH manganese(III) oxyhydroxide. Contrary to Mn 2 O 3, MnOOH is a compound that decomposes at about 300 °C to form MnO 2.
Manganese oxide is any of a variety of manganese oxides and hydroxides. [1] These include Manganese(II) oxide, MnO; Manganese(II,III) oxide, Mn 3 O 4; Manganese(III) oxide, Mn 2 O 3; Manganese dioxide, MnO 2; Manganese(VI) oxide, MnO 3; Manganese(VII) oxide, Mn 2 O 7; Other manganese oxides include Mn 5 O 8, Mn 7 O 12 and Mn 7 O 13.
Manganese(II,III) oxide is the chemical compound with formula Mn 3 O 4. Manganese is present in two oxidation states +2 and +3 and the formula is sometimes written as MnO · Mn 2 O 3 . Mn 3 O 4 is found in nature as the mineral hausmannite .
Manganese(IV) oxide was used in the original type of dry cell battery as an electron acceptor from zinc, and is the blackish material in carbon–zinc type flashlight cells. The manganese dioxide is reduced to the manganese oxide-hydroxide MnO(OH) during discharging, preventing the formation of hydrogen at the anode of the battery. [82]
In enzymology, a manganese peroxidase (EC 1.11.1.13) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction. 2 Mn(II) + 2 H + + H 2 O 2 2 Mn(III) + 2 H 2 O. The 3 substrates of this enzyme are Mn(II), H +, and H 2 O 2, whereas its two products are Mn(III) and H 2 O.
Manganese(VII) oxide (manganese heptoxide) is an inorganic compound with the formula Mn 2 O 7 Manganese heptoxide is a volatile liquid with an oily consistency. It is a highly reactive and powerful oxidizer that reacts explosively with nearly any organic compound .
Manganese(II) oxide is an inorganic compound with chemical formula MnO. [2] It forms green crystals. The compound is produced on a large scale as a component of fertilizers and food additives .
A Latimer diagram of a chemical element is a summary of the standard electrode potential data of that element. This type of diagram is named after Wendell Mitchell Latimer (1893–1955), an American chemist.
