Potassium manganate = K2MnO4
Potassium permanganate = KMnO4
It is important to quote the oxidation state of the compound. Potassium manganate could easily be potassium manganate (VI) as opposed to potassium manganate (VII) KMnO4
Potassium manganate (VI) K2MnO4 is a dark green compound made by fusing manganese (IV) oxide with potassium hydroxide. It is stable in basic solution
In aqueous acidic solution it disproportionates to the manganate (VII) ion and manganese (IV) oxide.

What is name of KMnO4?
KMnO4 is potassium permanganate.
Why boiling water is used instead of cold water when potassium manganate is dropped in the boiling water?
Potassium Manganate (VII) also called potassium permanganate, dissolves very quickly in hot water and much slower in cold water.
What is the chemical reaction of Potassium permanganate?
"Reaction with what other substance? It needs something to react with." Yes, it depends with what it is reacting.....but permanganate is a oxidative reagent, so it could possible oxidate others reagents, like carbon double bonds or triple bonds....if it is acidic solution, it´s more oxidant....it can break bonds and oxidate organic compounds.....itI think that the question is what happens when potassium permanganate (manganate VII) is heated.potassium permanganate + heat= potassium oxide + oxygen
Does potassium permanganate have chemical charge?
Potassium permanganate, KMnO4, has charge = 0
What is alkaline pottassium permanganate solution?
Alkaline potassium permanganate solution is a solution of potassium permanganate containing an alkali. The alkali can be sodium hydroxide or potassium hydroxide.
What colour is potassium permanganate potassium manganate VII?
purple. <3
Can potassium manganate turn from colourless to purple?
Potassium permanganate (KMnO4) is purple, so I guess that "potassium manganate" is already purple!
What is name of KMnO4?
KMnO4 is potassium permanganate.
What is the name of kmno4 in organic chemistry?
Potassium Permanganate or Potassium Manganate (VII)
Is potassium maganate VII an oxidising agent?
Yes, Potassium manganate(VII), K2MnO4 or Potassium permanganate is an oxidizing agent
Why no use indicator in the standardizing potassium permanganate titration?
Usually there is no indicator needed in potassium permanganate titrations as there will be an excess of manganate ions in the conical flask, turning the solution from colourless to pale pink.
