	~~==Chemical Properties==~~		'''Permanganic acid''' is a chemical compound with the formula HMnO_. It is a strong [[acid]] and a powerful [[oxidizing agent]]. Permanganic acid is the parent compound of [[permanganate]] salts, such as [[potassium permanganate]].

	~~The~~ acid is a ~~dark purple liquid at room temperature. It has a strong oxidizing property and can cause burns if it comes into contact~~ with ~~skin or eyes~~.

			Permanganic acid is a [[tetrahedral]] molecule, with the central [[manganese]] atom surrounded by four [[oxygen]] atoms. The manganese atom is in the +7 oxidation state, which is the highest oxidation state for manganese. This high oxidation state is responsible for the strong oxidizing properties of permanganic acid.

	~~==Uses==~~		Permanganic acid is typically a deep purple color in solution, similar to its salts. It is unstable in pure form and is usually encountered in aqueous solution.
	Permanganic acid is ~~used~~ in ~~various chemical reactions as an oxidizing agent~~. It is ~~also used~~ in ~~the preparation of other chemicals, such as [[permanganates]]. In addition, it~~ is ~~used in the treatment of water and~~ in ~~the bleaching of textiles~~.

	==~~Safety~~==		==Preparation==
	~~Due to its strong oxidizing properties, permanganic~~ acid can be ~~hazardous. It can cause burns if it comes into contact~~ with ~~skin or eyes~~. ~~It is also harmful if swallowed or inhaled. Therefore~~, ~~it should be handled~~ with ~~care and appropriate safety measures should be taken.~~		Permanganic acid can be prepared by the reaction of a permanganate salt with a strong acid. For example, the reaction of [[potassium permanganate]] with [[sulfuric acid]] can produce permanganic acid:

	==~~See Also~~==		: KMnO_ + H_SO_ _ HMnO_ + KHSO_

			This reaction must be carried out carefully, as permanganic acid is unstable and can decompose, releasing [[oxygen]] gas.

			==Reactions==
			Permanganic acid is a strong oxidizing agent and can react with a variety of [[organic]] and [[inorganic]] compounds. It can oxidize [[alcohols]] to [[carboxylic acids]], and it can also oxidize [[sulfides]] to [[sulfates]].

			In acidic solutions, permanganic acid can be reduced to [[manganese dioxide]] (MnO_), which is a brown solid:

			: 2 HMnO_ + 3 H_O_ _ 2 MnO_ + 3 O_ + 4 H_O

			==Stability==
			Permanganic acid is not stable in concentrated form and tends to decompose, especially in the presence of light or heat. It is more stable in dilute solutions, where it can exist for a short period before decomposing.

			==Applications==
			While permanganic acid itself is not commonly used due to its instability, its salts, such as potassium permanganate, are widely used in [[chemistry]] and [[medicine]]. Potassium permanganate is used as a disinfectant, in water treatment, and as an oxidizing agent in various chemical reactions.
