JEE Main 2024 — 29 January, Shift 1 — Question 68

KMnO4\mathrm{KMnO}_{4} decomposes on heating at 513 K to form O2\mathrm{O}_{2} along with

  1. Option A:

    MnO2& K2O2\mathrm{MnO}_{2} \& \mathrm{~K}_{2} \mathrm{O}_{2}

  2. Option B:

    K2MnO4&Mn\mathrm{K}_{2} \mathrm{MnO}_{4} \& \mathrm{Mn}

  3. Option C:

    Mn&KO2\mathrm{Mn} \& \mathrm{KO}_{2}

  4. Option D:

    K2MnO4&MnO2\mathrm{K}_{2} \mathrm{MnO}_{4} \& \mathrm{MnO}_{2}

    Correct

Answer: D

Step-by-step solution

KMnO4→Δ K2MnO4+MnO2+O2\mathrm{KMnO}_{4} \xrightarrow{\Delta} \mathrm{~K}_{2} \mathrm{MnO}_{4}+\mathrm{MnO}_{2}+\mathrm{O}_{2}
