Manganese is the 25th element on the periodic table. When in its natural state its physical appearance is similar to that of a rock. The elements colour tone is metallic silver. A special property of manganese is that when it is in its pure state it is reactive. When an element is reactive it means that it can combine with itself or other elements to make compounds. Manganese is very hard to melt, however, it is very easy to oxidize. To oxidize means to add oxygen to a substance. One last property of manganese is that it can rust.
