What is it you are trying to achieve? Are you trying to use /mnt as a regular directory? Or using /mnt as it is designed, i.e. as a mount point for a remote file system? If you are mounting a remote filesystem changing the permissions on /mnt won't have the desired effect. How to grant permissions on a remote file system will depend on the type of that file system, NFS, samba, as well as the remote file system NTFS, ext2,3,4, XFS, etc.. Check man mount for options to set things like UID, GID, file modes etc. depending on which type of mount you are using.
