Solution

The correct option is A 5003
In acidic medium, the equivalent weight of KMnO4 is one-fifth of its molecular mass.
N1V1=N2V2
100×1×5=100×N2
Molarity of H2O2=5 M

In alkaline medium, the equivalent weight of KMnO4 is one-third of its molecular mass.
N1V1=N2V2
0.01×3×V2=5×100
V2=5003

The volume of 0.01 M KMnO4, required to oxidize the same volume of H2O2 in alkaline medium in ml =5003mL.

Hence, option C is correct.
