Manganese sulfate
Features
Manganese(II) sulfate usually refers to the inorganic compound with the formula MnSO4(H2O). This pale pink deliquescent solid is a commercially significant manganese salt. Approximately (II) 260 thousand tonnes of manganese(II) sulfate were produced worldwide in 2005. It is the precursor to manganese metal and
many other chemical compounds. Mn-deficient soil is remediated with this salt.
