A solution of KMnO 4 on reduction yields either a colorless solution or a brown precipitate or a green solution depending on the pH of the solution. What different stages of the reduction do these represent and how are they carried out?

Options

1. AThe colorless solution represents the complete reduction to Mn(II) ions, while the brown precipitate represent
2. BThe colorless solution represents partial reduction to Mn(IV) oxide, while the brown precipitate represents co
3. CThe colorless solution represents the partial reduction to Mn(IV) oxide, while the green solution represents c
4. DThe brown precipitate represents the complete reduction to Mn(II) ions, while the green solution represents pa
