QUESTION :
Which of the following substance is a good reducing agent ?
A) NaOCl
B) HI
C) FeCl₃
D) KBr
ANSWER :
OPTION B)
EXPLANATION :
↪ HI is a good reducing agent because reduction involves addition of hydrogen to a compound .
↪ HI is infact the strongest reducing agent due to the fact that it contains a replaceable hydrogen ion in its compound .
↪ In the periodic table , the periodicity in properties takes place and the reducing property of the reducing agents increases down the group for halogens which is why iodine is the best reducing agent as it is present at the bottom .
↪ The other compounds are salts which can act as both reducing as well as oxidizing agents .
↪ Always remember that hydrogen halides are good reducing agents and the reducing strength increases as we go down the group .
