Detailed Solution

S and Mn2+ are produced when H2S gas is passed through an acidified KMnO4  solution. It neutralises the acidified KMnO4 hue.
Because KMnO4  is an oxidising agent, its colour is changed when it combines with acidified FeSO4 and oxidises.

The compounds which will decolourize the colour of acidified KMnO4 are,

H2S,FeSO4,NaNO2,Na2SO3,PbS,Na2S
