3kmno4+C6H8O7_:3Hmno4+c6H6K3O7.
it means when we added potassium permanganate to citric acid .the reaction will be hydrolysis reaction.because it is a reaction between acid and salt .than citric acid act as catalyst and immediately water became purple in colour.and permagnic acid is formed.

The chemical reaction between citric acid and potassium permanganate leads to the formation of permanganic acid and potassium isocitrate.
- The citric acid, weak acid reacts with a strong oxidizing agent, potassium permanganate.
- The reaction is between a weak organic acid and an inorganic molecule.
- The molecular formula of citric acid is (C₆H₈O₇), and potassium permanganate is KMnO₄.
- The reactants form permanganic acid (HMnO₄) and potassium isocitrate (C₆H₅K₃O₇).
- The oxidation states of the ions do not change in the chemical reaction.
- The balanced equation is as follows:
3KMnO₄ + C₆H₈O₇ → 3HMnO₄ + C₆H₅K₃O₇
