Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the solution have an observable color, that means that it absorbs light in the visible region hence it can be determined by colorimetry. Secondly, KMnO4 is a reducing agent which can be titrated against an oxidizing agent and it's concentration accurately determined.
