Accepted Answer
Question:

1 Potassium (K) + 1 Manganese (Mn) + 4 Oxygen (O)

Solution: Potassium manganate(VII) (K2MnO4)
Chemical Equation: 2K + Mn + 4O → K₂MnO₄
Explanation: This isn't a titration problem 😕. This is a simple combination reaction where potassium (K), manganese (Mn), and oxygen (O) react to form potassium manganate(VII) (K₂MnO₄). We need to balance the equation to ensure we have the same number of each atom on both sides. Notice how we needed 2 potassiums to balance the equation! ✨
