2022: Atomic Symbol Mn (+ Cool facts: Color, Uses and more...)

Every Atom has a symbol to represent them. Some are easy to figure out... But what is the atom whose symbol is Mn?

The answer is Manganese (Mn). But there's a lot of secret / fun facts about Manganese that people don't know. Let me walk you through this atom...

Manganese Overview

Atomic Symbol

Mn (Manganese)

State at 20 °C

Solid

Uses

Used in steel, batteries and ceramics. The steel in railroad tracks can contain as much as 1.2% manganese. It is crucial to the effectiveness of vitamin B1.

Sources

Most abundant ores are pyrolusite (MnO2), psilomelane [(Ba,H2O)2Mn5O10] and rhodochrosite (MnCO3). Pure metal produced by mixing MnO2 with powered Al and ignited in a furnace.

Description

Hard, brittle, gray-white metal with a pinkish tinge. Rusts like iron in moist air.

Name Origin

Latin: magnes (magnet); Italian: manganese.
