Specification:	A permanganate is the general name for a chemical compound containing the manganate(VII) ion, (MnO₄−). Because manganese is in the +7 oxidation state, the manganate(VII) ion is a strong oxidizing agent. The ion has a tetrahedral geometry Permanganate solutions are purple in color and are stable in neutral or slightly alkaline media. In an acidic solution, manganate(VII) is reduced to the colourless +2 oxidation state of the manganese(II) (Mn²⁺) ion. 8 H₃O + + MnO4− + 5 ^e− → Mn²⁺ + 12 H₂O In a strongly basic solution, manganate(VII) is either reduced to the brown +4 oxidation state of manganese dioxide MnO2 or to the green +6 oxidation state of the manganate MnO₄²⁻. 2 H₂O + MnO⁴⁻ + 3 ^e− → MnO₂ + 4 OH⁻ MnO₄⁻ + e− → MnO₄²⁻
