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

Accepted Answer

2KMn{O_4}\mathrel{\mathop{\kern0pt\longrightarrow}\limits_{200^\circ C}^\Delta } \mathop {{K_2}Mn{O_4}}\limits_{Green} + \mathop {Mn{O_2}}\limits_{Black} + {O_2}

In K₂MnO₄, manganese oxidation state is +6 and hence it has one unpaired e^$-$.
