Answer:
kmNo4 is oxidising agent
Explanation:
Since Potassium permanganate (KMnO₄) is quite an unstable compound, it tends to decompose in the presence of Ferrous sulphate (FeSO₄). This changes the colour of the solution from purple to colourless. The FeSO₄ gets oxidized to Fe₂(SO₄)₃ as KMnO₄ acts as a good oxidizing agent in an acidic medium.
