Solution

The correct option is C KMnO4,K2MnO4 and Cl2
Thermal decomposition of Mn compound (X), i.e. KMnO4 at 513 K result in compound Y(i.e.K2MnO4),MnO2 and a gaseous product. MnO2 reacts with NaCl and concentrated H2SO4 to give a pungent gas Z(i.e.Cl2). The reactions involved are as follows :

2KMnO4(X)513 K−−ΔK2MnO4(Y)+MnO2+O2(g)
MnO2+4NaCl+4H2SO4
MnCl2+4NaHSO4+2H2O+Cl2(g)(Z)Pugent gas
Thus, correct answer is (c).
