Detailed Solution

One liter 1N solution of KMnO4​ corresponds to 1 g equivalent. 

In acid medium for oxidation, the equivalent weight of KMnO4​ is one fifth of its molecular mass. 

It is 1585​= 31.6 g.
Hence, 1 g equivalent of KMnO4​ corresponds to 31.6 g.
Hence, in order to prepare one liter 1N solution of KMnO4​, 31.6 grams of KMnO4​ are required, if the solution to be used in acid medium for oxidation.
