Potassium manganate when [] < 1M, follows bimolecular kinetics. See for a list. Potassium manganate Potassium manganate is the inorganic compound with the formula KMnO. This green-colored salt is an intermediate in the industrial synthesis of potassium permanganate (KMnO), a common chemical. Occasionally, potassium manganate and potassium "per"manganate are confused, but they are different compounds with distinctly different properties. KMnO is a salt, consisting of K cations and MnO anions. X-ray crystallography shows that the anion is tetrahedral, with Mn-O distances of 1.66 Å, ca. 0.03 Å longer than the Mn-O distances in KMnO. It is isostructural with potassium sulfate. The industrial
Chemical element by symbol, as well as ionization energies of the elements. The nuclides of stable and radioactive elements are also available as a list of nuclides, sorted by length of half-life for those that are unstable. One of the most convenient, and certainly the most traditional presentation of the elements, is in the form of the periodic table, which groups together elements with similar chemical properties (and usually also similar electronic structures). The atomic number of an element is equal to the number of protons in each atom, and defines the element. For example, all carbon atoms contain 6 protons in
