Mn is reduced from +4 to +2.

Cl- is oxidised from - 1 to 0.

So MnO2 is oxidising agent and HCl is reducing agent.


mohittt: they are substances which are oxidised and reduced not agents
lamia123saleem: pls.. the equation is note in the reverse order
mohittt: moreover , agents are always from reactants side
lamia123saleem: you are answering the question in reverse order
mohittt: why it is written in wrong order
balagopalravi65: the way u wrote the equation is wrong
balagopalravi65: its actually MnO2 + 4HCL = 2MnCl2+Cl2+2h2o
mohittt: you should correctly put this in the question
lamia123saleem: no i did not make any mistake

oxidising agent is h2o(water) and reducing agent is cl2(chlorine)

lamia123saleem: are you sure?
