Solution

The correct option is A KMnO4
OXalic-acid vs KMnO4
Oxalic Acid -KMnO4 Titrations
Reaction: Potassium permanganate is a strong oxidant in presence of sulphuric acid so it can be used for the estimation of oxalic acid (oxalates). Oxalic acid reacts with the acidic KMnO4

2KMnO4+3H2SO4K2SO4+2MnSO4+3H2O+5[O]
5(COOH)2+5[O]5H2O+10CO2
Indicator Last drop of KMnO4 itself acts as an indicator.
End point Appearance of light pink colour.
