Detailed Solution
The balanced equation is 2 KMnO4+3H2SO4+5H2C2O4→ K2SO4+2MnSO4+8H2O+ 10 CO2 5 moles of oxalic acid react with KMnO4=2 moles2.70g oxalic acid =2.7090 mole∴2.7090 mole of oxalic acid will react with KMnO4=25×2.7090=0.012 mole0.05 mole of KMnO4 sol an present in 1000 cm3 ∴0.012 mole of KMnO4 will be present in 10000.05×0.012 cm3=240 cm3
