Abstract
Manganese (atom. no. 25; atom. wt. 54.94; melting pt, 1244 ± 3 °C, and specific gravity, 7.2), is a member of Group VII-A of the periodic table. It is next to Fe in the atomic series, is similar to it in chemical behavior, and is often closely associated with it in its natural occurrence (i.e., Mn ores and Fe ores often coexist). Its compounds can exist in the oxidation states of I, II, III, IV, VI, and VII. Its most stable salts are those of oxidation states II, IV, VI, and VII. The lower oxides (MnO and Mn2O3) are basic; the higher oxides are acidic. Manganese is a whitish-gray metal, harder than Fe but quite brittle. Manganese metal oxidizes superficially in air and rusts in moist air.
