Answer:

A. ON of oxygen is -2

B. ON of Mn is +7

D. K₂MnO₄ may behave like a reducing agent

Explanation:

As a general rule of thumb, ON of alkali metals is always + 1 , and except in combination with fluorine , superoxides and peroxides, oxygen always has an ON of -2 in it's compounds.

K₂MnO₄ has Mn in +6 state. It has tendency to get oxidised to KMnO₄ with Mn in +7 oxidation state. Since it itself gets oxidised , it will reduce other compounds and therefore behaves as a REDUCING agent.

Therefore Option A , B , D are correct.
