Manganese (II) hydroxide is an inorganic chemical compound of manganese from the group of hydroxides .
Extraction and presentation
Manganese (II) hydroxide precipitates out of the solution as a yellowish precipitate in the reaction of manganese (II) salt solutions with alkali solutions in the absence of air. For example, by reacting manganese (II) chloride tetrahydrate with a potassium hydroxide solution.
properties
Manganese (II) hydroxide is a white to pink solid that is practically insoluble in water. It is stable when it is free from alkali hydroxides and amorphous components. Otherwise it quickly turns brown in air (formation of manganese (III) and manganese (IV) oxide hydrates ). It has a hexagonal crystal structure isotype to that of cadmium hydroxide with the space group P 3 m 1 (space group no.164) (a = 334 pm, c = 468 pm). However, it also occurs in an orthorhombic modification with the space group Pbnm (No. 62, position 3) .
