Properties

Manganates(VII) are salts of permanganic acid. Manganate(VII) is a strong oxidizer, and similar to perchlorate. It is therefore in common use in qualitative analysis that involves redox reactions(permanganometry).Besides this, it is stable. This article is about common table salt. ... Permanganic acid, HMnO4, is an oxygen acid of manganese. ... An oxidizing agent is a substance that oxidizes another substance in electrochemistry or redox chemical reactions in general. ... Perchlorates are the salts derived from perchloric acid (HClO4). ...


It is a useful reagent, though with organic compounds, it may just destroy them entirely.


Manganates(VII) are not very thermically stable. For instance, potassium permanganate decomposes at 230 °C: Potassium permanganate is the chemical compound KMnO4. ...

Permanganate is a strong oxidizer, and similar to perchlorate.
Use of Potassium Permanganate to Control External Infections of Ornamental Fish (1835 words)
Because potassium permanganate is deactivated by organic matter, it may be necessary to increase the amount added to ponds or other systems where organic material has been allowed to accumulate.
Potassium permanganate can be used as a surface disinfectant at concentrations of 10 mg/L (30-60 minutes contact time) to 500 mg/L (30 seconds contact time) in a fish room or hatchery, however, quaternary ammonium compounds are better suited to this purpose.
Poor efficacy following use of potassium permanganate is usually caused by one of three factors: (1) incorrect or incomplete diagnosis; (2) incorrect calculation or measurement of amount of chemical needed; and (3) excessive organic material in the system resulting in rapid degradation of the chemical.
