Which of the following is used in the manufacture of high refractive index optical glass for cameras?

Preparation of potassium permanganate from $MnO_2$ involves a two-step process in which the $1^{st}$ step is a reaction with $KOH$ and $KNO_3$ to produce:

Potassium permanganate on heating at $513 \ K$ gives a product which is :

On heating $KMnO_4$,which one of the following is not formed?

On heating a mixture of common salt and $K_{2}Cr_{2}O_{7}$ with concentrated $H_{2}SO_{4}$, a gas is evolved. The formula of the gas evolved and the oxidation state of the central metal atom in the gas, respectively, are:

The oxidation states of transition metal atoms in $K_{2}Cr_{2}O_{7}$,$KMnO_{4}$ and $K_{2}FeO_{4}$,respectively,are $x$,$y$ and $z$. The sum of $x$,$y$ and $z$ is
