Illustrating the Oxidation States of Mn V? ? KCl????? /fatherofchemistry  Procedure ? KCl????? /fatherofchemistry DiscussionPart A: Making Mn(VI) from Mn(VII) and Mn(IV)????????????? 1. Explain why only one of the three mixtures reacted to give green Mn(VI).[ANS] By Le Chateliers Principle, only the alkaline medium will shift the equilibrium to right and yield green MnO42-.2. What happened when acid was added to Mn(VI)? Explain.[ANS] The solution changes from green to purple again. The acid removes OH- on the left side and the decrease in [OH-] favours the??????????? backward
