What elements does manganese react with the most? |
|
Answer» 3MN(s) + 2O2(g) → Mn3O4(s) 3Mn(s) + N2(g) → Mn3N2(s) 3Mn(s) + 2O2(g) → Mn3O4(s) 3Mn(s) + N2(g) → Mn3N2(s) Manganese BURNS in chlorine to formmanganese(II) chloride, MnCl2. It also reacts with bromine or IODINE toform respectively manganese(II) bromide, MnBr2, or manganese(II) iodide,MnI2. The corresponding reaction between the metal and fluorine, F2affords the fluorides manganese(II) fluoride, MnF2 and manganese (III)fluoride, MnF3.Mn(s) + Cl2(g) → MnCl2(s) Mn(s) + Br2(g) → MnBr2(s) Mn(s) + I2(g) → MnI2(s) Mn(s) + F2(g) → MnF2(s) 2Mn(s) + 3F2(g) → 2MnF3(s) Manganese metal dissolves readily in dilute SULPHURICACID to form solutions containing the aquated Mn(II) ion together withhydrogen gas, H2. In practice, the Mn(II) is present as the virtually colourless complex ion [Mn(OH2)6]2+.Mn(s) + H2SO4(aq) → Mn2+(aq) + SO42-(aq) + H2(g) |
