    Potassium manganate \[({{K}_{2}}Mn{{O}_{4}})\] is formed when:

    A) cuprous oxide reacts with alkaline \[KMn{{O}_{4}}\]solution.

    B) manganese dioxide is fused with \[{{K}_{2}}C{{O}_{3}}\] in presence of \[KN{{O}_{3}}.\]

    C) formaldehyde reacts with potassium permanganate in presence of concentrated potassium hydroxide solution.

    D) in all of the above

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    [a] \[KMn{{O}_{4}}+C{{u}_{2}}O+KOH\xrightarrow{{}}2Cu{{(OH)}_{2}}+{{K}_{2}}Mn{{O}_{4}}.\]
    [b] \[2Mn{{O}_{2}}+2{{K}_{2}}C{{O}_{3}}+{{O}_{2}}(\text{from }KN{{O}_{3}})\xrightarrow{{}}\]\[2{{K}_{2}}Mn{{O}_{4}}+C{{O}_{2}}\]
    [c] \[HCHO+2KMn{{O}_{4}}+2KOH\xrightarrow[{}]{{}}2{{K}_{2}}Mn{{O}_{4}}\]\[+{{H}_{2}}O+HCOOH\]
    [d] in all of the above
