Solution

The correct option is B $M n^{2 +}$ and $O_{2}$
Hydrogen peroxide is oxidized to $H_{2} O$ and $O_{2}$ .
$2 K M n O_{4} + 3 H_{2} S O_{4} + 5 H_{2} O_{2} \to$
$K_{2} S O_{4} + 2 M n S O_{4} + 8 H_{2} O + 5 O_{2}$
Or, $2 M n O_{4}^{-} + 5 H_{2} O_{2} + 6 H^{+} \to 2 M n^{2 +} + 8 H_{2} O + 5 O_{2}$
