Potassium Permanganate (KMnO4) reacts with Sulphuric acid (H2SO4) to produce Manganese Heptoxide (MnO7), water (H20) and Potassium Hydrogen Sulphate (KHSO4)2. The reactive species produced is Manganese Heptoxide (which is a very powerful oxidiser). The Manganese Heptoxide will oxidise the Oxalic acid (COOH)2 to Carbon dioxide (CO2).
KMno4 is reduced to Mn^2+ Salt and the pink colour is discharged by the nascent hydrogen produced when zinc reacts with h2so4
This redox reaction also requires an acid as H2SO4 , the overall reaction is.... 5H2C2O4 + 2KMnO4 + 3H2SO4 = K2SO4 + 2MnSO4 + 10CO2 +8H2O
The permanganate ion, MnO4- purple in colour. The sulfuric acid is added to create acidic conditions. In acidic conditions, the MnO4- gets reduced to Mn2+ which is colourless. Therefore, judging by the colour change, we can figure out how much of the potassium permanganate has been used.

If is K2O (potassium oxide) it would be: K2O+H2SO4=K2SO4+H2O It could also form potassium bisulfate: K2O + 2 H2SO4 = 2 KHSO4 + H2O But I'm not sure if you are referring to potassium peroxide (K2O2) or superoxide (KO2)
H2SO4 is needed to first react with HNO3 to give NO2
h2so4 being good oxidising agent oxidises the h2s to h2o and free sulphur.so conc h2so4 cant be used in preparation of h2s gas
2koh+h2so4 --> 2h2o + K2SO4or1koh+h2so4 --> h2o + KHSO4
Water and potassium sulfate
2MnO4- + 5H2O2 + 6H+ → 2Mn2+ + 5O2 + 8H2O Permanganate is added to H2SO4 + H2O2 and is reduced because it is a better oxidising agent that H2O2 the purple MnO4 ion is used up and the solution fades almost to clear if the mix is right
2KOH + H2SO4 --> K2SO4 + 2H2O2KOH(aq) + H2SO4(aq) --> K2SO4(aq) + 2H2O(l)
