30	KMnO4 and K2Cr2O7 are the most important chemicals which are used as oxidizing agents and disinfectants. K2MnO4 is prepared by fusing MnO2 with KOH in presence of O2. K2MnO4 is electrolyzed to get purple colored KMnO4. Na2CrO4 is converted into Na2Cr2O7 by reacting with KCL to get K2Cr2O7, orange colored solid, soluble in water, changes to yellow colored CrO42- in basic medium, KMnO4 acts as oxidizing agent in acidic, neutral as well as basic medium. In acidic medium it converts Fe2+ to Fe3+, Sn2+ to Sn4+, C2O42- to CO2. In basic medium it converts I-1 to IO3-. K2Cr2O7 acts as an oxidizing agent only in acidic medium, converts H2S to S, SO2 to SO42-, I-1 to I2.
