What can replace potassium permaganate as oxidation agent?
suggest other oxidizing agent that can be replace potassium permanganate
How acidified potassium permanganate is used as a reducing reagent?
Potassium permanganate is known as an oxidizing agent.
Is potassium permanganate and water solution or suspensions?
Potassium permanganate and water form a solution, unless here is so much potassium permanganate present compared to the amount of water that the solubility limit is exceeded. In the latter instance, there might be both solution and suspension.
Is Surface tension of water affected by potassium permanganate?
Yes. Surface tension of water increases with addition of potassium permanganate.
Which elements are in KMnO4?
potassium permanganate
What can replace potassium permaganate as oxidation agent?
suggest other oxidizing agent that can be replace potassium permanganate
Is acidic or alkaline kmno4 needed for the oxidation of toluene?
Acidic conditions promote the oxidation of toluene by potassium permanganate.
What has the author Calvin Adam Buehler written?
Calvin Adam Buehler has written: 'The oxidation of lactose, glucose, and galactose by means of neutral and alkaline potassium permanganate' -- subject(s): Accessible book, Oxidation, Lactose, Galactose, Potassium permanganate, Glucose
What is the Reaction of cyclohexane with alkaline KMno4?
The reaction of cyclohexane with alkaline potassium permanganate is oxidation. This oxidation gives off the chemical cis-1,2-cyclohenanediol. The permanganate ion is reduced to green manganite.
What does vigorous oxidation mean?
very intensive oxidation, for example, oxidation of ethanethiol with potassium permanganate in nitric acid/sodium hypochorite in producing of ethyl sulphonic acid.
Is potassium manganate and potassium permanganate the same?
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 the equation for the oxidation of ethanoic anhydride by potassium permanganate?
Ethanoic anhydride can no longer be oxidized by any oxidizing agent.
Why does secondary alcohol react with potassium permanganate more quickly than primary alcohol?
Because a primary alcohol oxidation is a two step process. First going to an aldehyde then to a carboxylic acid. A secondary alcohol is a one step process that produces a ketone.
What is name of KMnO4?
KMnO4 is potassium permanganate.
What is the name of the compound KNO3?
Potassium permanganate
How small are the particle of matter of potassium permanganate?
A molecule of potassium permanganate, KMnO4.
Does potassium permanganate have chemical charge?
Potassium permanganate, KMnO4, has charge = 0
