Solution

The correct option is D SO2
  • Acidified KMnO4 can be decolorized by SO2.Potassium permanganate(KMnO4) has a purple colour. Sulphur dioxide is a reducing agent.
  • Potassium permanganate is an oxidizing agent. When sulphur dioxide reacts with potassium permanganate the solution decolourizes.
