Question

Choose the correct answer from the alternative given.
When an oxide of manganese (P) is fused with KOH in the presence of an oxidizing agent and dissolved in water, it gives a dark green solution of compound (Q). Compound (Q) disproportionates in neutral or acidic solution to give purple compound (R). An alkaline solution of compound (R) oxidizes potassium iodide solution to a compound (S) and compound (P) is also formed. Compounds P to S are:

A
(P)MnO4,(Q)KIO3,(R)MnO2,(S)K2MnO4
