Brief Overview
Manganese nitrate is an inorganic chemical compound with formula, Mn(NO3)2 and it is widely used in the fertilizer industry. Manganese nitrate solutions are light pink transparent liquids with a slight nitric acid odour. Manganese nitrate solutions are corrosive, stable and may produce oxides of nitrogen upon thermal decomposition. Manganese nitrate occurs in various forms such as monohydrate, tetrahydrate, hexahydrate and anhydrous compound.
Manufacturing Process
Manganese nitrate is manufactured industrially by the reaction between manganese carbonate and dilute nitric acid solution. Manganese nitrate can also be prepared by the reaction of manganese dioxide with the nitrogen dioxide.
MnCO3 + 2 HNO3 → Mn(NO3)2 + H2O + CO2.
