Detailed Solution

HCI and SO2 are reducing agents and can reduce MnO4CO2 which is neither oxidising and nor reducing. Therefore, CO2 is added to the solution as it helps to shift the equilibrium in the forward direction by successfully removing hydroxide ion and reaction can go to completion.

CO2+OH-CO32-+H2O
