If stoichiometric quantities of a $KMnO_4$ and $K_2Cr_2O_7$ mixture are added for the oxidation of $Fe^{2+}$ to $Fe^{3+}$ in an acidic medium,then $Fe^{2+}$ will be oxidized:

Equivalent weights of $KMnO_4$ and $K_2Cr_2O_7$ in acidic medium are respectively. (Molecular weight of $KMnO_4 = M_A$ and Molecular weight of $K_2Cr_2O_7 = M_B$).
