Barium permanganate heptoxide. Barium permanganate Barium permanganate is a chemical compound, with the formula Ba(MnO). Barium permanganate may be produced by disproportionation of barium manganate in a mildly acidic solution, or by oxidation of barium manganate with strong oxidants. Preparations relying on aqueous reactions of barium manganate are extremely slow process due to the low solubility of the manganate. Permanganic acid can be prepared by the reaction of dilute sulfuric acid with a solution barium permanganate, the insoluble barium sulfate byproduct being removed by filtering: The sulfuric acid used must be dilute; reactions of permanganates with concentrated sulfuric acid yield the anhydride,
Silver nitride Silver nitride Silver nitride is an explosive chemical compound with symbol AgN. It is a black, metallic-looking solid which is formed when silver oxide or silver nitrate is dissolved in concentrated solutions of ammonia, causing formation of the diammine silver complex which subsequently breaks down to AgN. The standard free energy of the compound is about +315 kJ/mol, making it an endothermic compound which decomposes explosively to metallic silver and nitrogen gas. Silver nitride was formerly referred to as fulminating silver, but this can cause confusion with silver fulminate or silver azide, other compounds which have also been referred to
