Best Answer

there is no such thing. Potassium permanganate is a metallic purple crystalline substance that is solid at room temperature and can not be made a gas because it decomposes at 240 C. Long before it would become a gas. It dissolves in water rather well so you could make a water mixture and spray it but that would not be a gas. If you mix Potassium Permanganate with formaldehyde it creates a mild tear gas.

Reaction of formaldehyde with potassium permanganate?

Benzaldehyde reacts with pottasium permanganate to generate benzoic acid (oxidation). Basic cnditions are required for the action of pottasium permanganate so sodium carbonate is used. But this gives sodium salt of benzoic acid which is soluble in water. To retrieve benzoic acid which is insoluble in water we use HCl.
