Solution

The correct option is C. 66%

Number of mili equivalent of KMnO4=90×120=4.5 m equivalents.

and number of mili equivalents of oxalate ions = number of mili equivalents of KMnO4=4.5m equivalents

Number of equivalents =Massequivalent mass

& equivalent mass of oxalate ion =882=44

Mass of oxalate =44×4.5×103grams

=198×103g

= 0.198 g

percentage in salt oxalate =0.1980.3×100=66%
