Why in the redox titration of KMnO4vs oxalic acid,

Question:

Why in the redox titration of KMnO4vs oxalic acid, we heat oxalic acid solution before starting the titration?

Solution:

We heat oxalic acid solution because without heating it is a slow process as energy greater than the activation energy is required for a reaction. So to increase the

energy, the temperature must be increased which is only possible by heating the oxalic acid solution.
