Title: MnO4 2- + OH- redox
Post by: Martyka1 on June 11, 2017, 08:15:06 AM
Hi all,
does anyone know solution to MnO4 2- + OH- redox equation (manganate ion in alkaline medium)?
It would be much appreciated. :)

In alkaline solution the reaction of (per)manganates ends up to manganese dioxide.

So, what you want to say is that product is MnO2 and H2O?

Can you please write the whole equation solution :)

Can you please read the forum rules (http://www.chemicalforums.com/index.php?topic=65859.0)?

The question is what you need. You should develop this kind of equations by yourself normally.

Only one hint, if no reducing agent is present oxygen will be developed.
