Solution

The correct option is B

2KMnO4


On the product side, we have

2 K atoms, 2 Mn atoms and 8 O atoms

We know that the atoms on the reactant side should be the same as on the product side.

So, on balancing we get:

2KMnO4+heatK2MnO4+MnO2+O2

KMnO4 is potassium permanganate.

This is the laboratory method to prepare O2.
