Pick out the incorrect statement :

Answer»

`MnO_4^(2-)` is quite STRONGLY oxidizing and stable only in very strong alkalies. In DILUTE ALKALI, neutral solutions, it disproportionates.
In acidic solutions, `MnO_4^–` is reduced to `Mn^(2+)` and thus, `KMnO_4` is widely used as oxidising AGENT
`KMnO_4` does not acts as oxidising agent in alkaline medium
`KMnO_4` is MANUFACTURED by the fusion of pyrolusite ore with KOH in presence of air or `KNO_3`, followed by electrolytic oxidation in alkaline solution.
