Question

particles. Justify the statement.
3. From the equation, deduce which of the following statement/s is/are correct?
Give reason for your choice. .
2H2S + SO2→3S+2H2O


i) H2S has lost hydrogen to form S, so H2S has been oxidised
(ii) SO2 has lost oxygen to form S, so SO2 has been reduced.
(iii) H2S gives hydrogen, so H2S is an oxidising agent.
(iv) SO2 gives oxygen, so SO2 is a reducing agent.
(a) (i) and (iii)
(b) (i) and (iv)
(c) (i) and (ii)
(d) (ii) and (iii)​

Answer 1

Please mark my answer as a brainilist

Answer 2

Answer: (C) (i) and (ii)

Explanation:

Addition of hydrogen and removal of oxygen is known as reduction whereas addition of oxygen and removal of hydrogen is known as Oxidation.

reactant that undergoes reduction is called oxidising agent whereas that undergoes oxidation is called reducing agent.

hence option (C) is correct.
