What polyatomic ion could form a neutral compound with the manganese (VII) ion? (6 points)
AND
include the following in your answer:
polyatomic anion formula AND name
name of the neutral compound
formula of the neutral compound

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Manganese (VII) ion (an anion) has the formula MnO₄⁻. A polyatomic ion is an ion that is made up of more than one atom. For example, MnO₄⁻ and NH₄⁺. Since the ion provided in the question is an anion, the polyatomic ion that would react with it will have to be a cation (positively charged).

The polyatomic cation that will react with MnO₄⁻ to form a neutral compound is NH₄⁺ (ammonium ion) to form NH₄MnO₄ (Ammonium permanganate).
