Sodium Permanganate
Sodium permanganate is primarily used as an oxidizing agent and disinfectant in various industries, including water treatment, agriculture, and laboratory applications. It is effective in removing organic compounds, iron, manganese, and hydrogen sulfide from water sources. Sodium permanganate behaves similarly to potassium permanganate. It dissolves readily in water to give deep purple solutions, evaporation of which gives prismatic purple-black glistening crystals of the monohydrate. Sodium permanganate is also used to oxidize the organic contaminants that cause taste and odor problems.
