That's a rule dear. Reaction with hot conc KMNO4 gives CO2, water, and acid. In this case dicarboxylic acid since there is also an OH group.
You need to learn a few organic stuff the way it comes. Why? maybe in A2 :-\ I always ask questions like these. It's good to..but teachers don't like it :-\

My sister often comes to me, why does acid + metal carbonate form salt +water + CO2. And I'm like, cuz it simply does, I can explain, but believe me, that wont make her happy. She will want to know more, and then get completely confused abt it!

Haha thats exactly how my sister thinks! and when she asks me further questions, she confuses me along with her
so thats i basically avoid her questions! or else ill get a U in chemistry

And I appreciate people who think like that. I always look for an explanation to things. I am very disappointed when I don't get my answer. I try every possible thing to find out. Use the net, look through books, ask people...
Maybe there's still some time before you know the "why" and "how"

that's true, i always think why does it happen as well..but at times it's best to avoid this question or else you'll be doomed like my sister.
sometimes there's the answer but its not required for our level of education, you'll learn it later in higher levels (thats what my teacher says ::) )
