Potassium permanganate (KMnO4) is a dark purple, crystalline solid that is highly soluble in water, producing a deep purple solution. It is a strong oxidizing agent, often used in redox reactions, and has antimicrobial properties, making it useful in water treatment and disinfection. KMnO4 is also known for its ability to act as a reagent in organic chemistry. Additionally, it can decompose when heated, releasing oxygen and resulting in potassium manganate.
