Manganese commonly occurs in nature as a mineral. The extraction of manganese from the carbonite mineral rhodochrosite, involves a two-step process. In the first step, manganese (II) carbonate and oxygen react to form manganese (IV) oxide and carbon dioxide: 2 MnCO3(s) + O2(g) → 2MnO2(s) + 2CO2(g) In the second step, manganese (IV) oxide and aluminum react to form manganese and aluminum oxide: 3 MnO2(s) + 4 Al(s) → 3 Mn(s) + 2 Al2O3(s) Write the net chemical equation for the production of manganese (II) carbonate, oxygen and aluminum. Be sure your equation is balanced.

In the second step, manganese (IV) oxide and aluminum react to form manganese and aluminum oxide:

Write the net chemical equation for the production of manganese from manganese (II) carbonate, oxygen and aluminum. Be sure your equation is balanced.

Answer : The net chemical equation for the production of manganese is:

Explanation :

The given two chemical reactions are:

(1)

(2)

First we are multiplying reaction 1 by 3, and reaction 2 by 2, we get:

(1)

(2)

Now we are adding both the reactions, we get the overall chemical reaction.

The   is common on both side, by cancelling it, we get:

The net chemical equation for the production of manganese is:

have a great day because if you dont you and i will be sad
