Click For Summary
MnSO4 can be oxidized to MnO4- in an acidic medium using various oxidizing agents, including NO3-, O2, Cr2O72-, and S2O82-. The proposed reaction involves MnSO4 reacting with NO3- to yield MnO4- and an unspecified byproduct. Participants in the discussion seek clarification on the additional products formed during this oxidation process. The inquiry emphasizes the need for accurate chemical equations and understanding of the reaction dynamics. Overall, the discussion focuses on the oxidation of manganese in acidic conditions and the identification of resultant products.
