Potassium Permanganate which is also commonly referred to as KMnO4 is a chemical compound that is used in many industries for its oxidizing functionality. This compound is also sold commercially mostly for medicinal purposes. It is available as crystals, powder, and tablets. While this is one of the most discussed topics in Chemistry, we will understand everything about the compound in detail below..

Potassium Permanganate formula is written as KMnO4. This inorganic compound belongs to the category of salt and consists of two ions namely K+ and MnO-4 ions. Some of its key properties include its oxidizing and solubility properties. KMnO4 is a strong oxidizing agent and most of its uses are based on this property. It is also easily soluble in water and usually forms a pinkish or purple solution when potassium permanganate is in water. Below we will talk more comprehensively about this chemical compound. It is also known by its common name, Condy’s crystals.

Potassium permanganate uses are mostly centered around its oxidizing property. It is also used widely because there is no generation of toxic byproducts..

Common Uses of Potassium Permanganate :

It is used in the preservation of fruits.

KMnO4 is used in treating fish diseases and parasites.

Glass industry for coloring and removal of
impurities

Air purification for odor control and increased oxygen levels

Oxidizing and removal of ferrous impurities from inorganic chemicals

Disease control and disinfection in aquaculture and mushroom culture

Potassium Permanganate is a useful fish disease treatment, acting against a range of protozoan parasites including Trichodina, Costia and Chilodonella

Potassium permanganate will restore the efficiency of low performing iron filters Water treatment for disinfection, odor control and maintaining B.O.D. levels.

KMnO4 is used extensively as an antiseptic to treat different kinds of fungal infections, ulcers, wounds, and other skin conditions.

Pre-treatment of wood and wooden furniture

Fumigation of Poultry farms, hatcheries and hospitals

Pickling agent in steel industry for descaling and degreasing

This chemical compound is also used to remove rust that may be found in water pipes and equipment.

Non-ferrous, metal and metal salts industry for removal of ferrous impurities

Potassium Permanganate can also assist with bacterial gill disease and bacterial disease such as skin ulcers.

It is used in water treatment mainly to remove minerals such as iron and hydrogen sulfide and control organisms such as zebra mussels.

It will also oxidize dissolved organic matter, reducing the biological oxygen demand and improving water quality and clarity.

FAQ's

Why Permanganate a good oxidizing agent?

As the oxidation states of atoms increase the elements become more electronegative. Therefore, permanganate a good oxidizing agent.

Uses of potassium permanganate

Two uses of potassium permanganate are-
It is used to treat various skin diseases such as fungal infection in the foot
It is used as an oxidizing agent in industries.
It improves water quality & clarity.
It is used for a number of skin conditions.
It can restore the efficiency of low performing iron filters.
Numerous uses in aqua culture & mushroom culture.

What is the color of potassium permanganate?

Potassium permanganate’s physical state is an odourless solid, and they look like crystals of dark purple or bronze color. When these crystals are dissolved in water, the solution becomes purple

Why KMnO4 is a self indicator?

The solution under examination loses its pink color once all the permanganate ions are used up in the reaction. It suggests the end of the reaction and therefore a self-indicator is called potassium permanganate, as it serves as an indicator apart from being one of the reactants.
