Physical properties edit

Manganese oxalate forms light pink crystals.

It does not dissolve in water, p Ksp= 6.8.

Forms crystalline hydrates of the composition MnC2O4n H2O, where n = 2 and 3.[6]

Crystalline hydrate of the composition MnC2O4•2H2O forms light pink crystals of the orthorhombic system, space group P212121, cell parameters a = 0.6262 nm, b = 1.3585 nm, c = 0.6091 nm, Z = 4, melts in its own crystallization water at 100°C.[7][8]

Chemical properties edit

Decomposes on heating:

 

Application edit
