KMnO4 and H2SO4 are oxidising agents.
Oxidising agents are hungry for electrons...
Nitric acid, being a strong oxidising agent, interferes with oxidising capacity of KMnO4 hence reducing accuracy of titration.
When ethanol is added to alkaline KMno4 solution, the ethanol gets oxidised to ethanoic acid due to nascent oxygen. KMno4 is an oxidising agent. thus when we first add alkaline Kmno4 to ethanol, the pink colour of the Kmno4 vanishes, as it is being used up for the oxidation process. however. when all of the ethanol has been oxidised into ethanoic acid, and we keep adding Kmno4, the colour returns, as there is no more ethanol left to oxidise.
It is probably because a part of the oxygen produced from the reaction of KmnO4 and HCl is used up in oxidising the HCl to Cl2 gas

KMnO4 is the strongest oxidizer of these chemicals.

permanganate ion is an oxidising agent and is reduced.
The evolved gas is carbon dioxide (CO2).

initially it decolorizes bcoz it acts as oxidising agent so converts alcohol into acetic acid. later no change is found in KMnO4 bcoz all alcool is already cnverted into acetic acid.
The balanced chemical equation would be K4FeC6N6 + KMnO4 + H2SO4 = KHSO4 + Fe2SO43 + MnSO4 + HNO3 + CO2 + H2O.

FeCl2 + 2KMnO4 --> Fe(MnO4)2 + 2KCl
yes since kmno4 is an oxidizing agent so it will reduce to mn2+ and the nacl cl will be oxidised to cl2.
