2. In the reaction:
3. H2O2 changes Cr2O72- ion to CrO5 in an acidic medium, the oxidation state
of Cr in CrO5 is
(a) +6 (b) +5 (c) -10 (d) +3
4 H2SO4 acts as a strong oxidising agent. In which of the reaction, is it not acting as an
oxidising agent?
(a) C + 2H2SO4 → CO2 + 2SO2 + 2H2O
5 Assertion : In a reaction
Zn(s) + CuSO4 (aq) → ZnSO4(aq) + Cu(s)
Zn is a reductant but itself get oxidized.
Reason: In a redox reaction, oxidant is reduced by accepting electrons and reductant is
oxidized by losing electrons.
(a) Assertion is correct, reason is correct; reason is a correct explanation for assertion.
(b) Assertion is correct, reason is correct; reason is not a correct explanation for assertion
(c) Assertion is correct, reason is incorrect
(d) Assertion is incorrect, reason is correct.
(g) K[Co(CO)4]
7 Identify the substance oxidized and reduced, also identify oxidizing and reducing agents in
12 Calculate the number of electrons lost or gained during the following reactions :
13 Explain why :
(a) HNO3 acts only as oxidant while HNO2 act both as oxidant and reductant?
(c) ClO3- , ClO,-, and ClO2- undergo disproportionation but ClO4- does not?
(d) Nitric acid is an oxidising agent and reacts with PbO, but it does not react
with PbO₂.
(e) Fluorine does not show a disproportionation reaction?
14 The reaction:
(a) Permanganate ion (MnO4–) reacts with sulphur dioxide gas in an acidic medium to
produce Mn2+ and hydrogensulphate ion.
(b) Reaction of liquid hydrazine (N2H4) with chlorate ion (CIO3–) in basic medium
produces nitric oxide gas and chloride ion in a gaseous state.
(c) Dichlorine heptaoxide (Cl2O7) in gaseous state combines with an aqueous solution of
hydrogen peroxide in acidic medium to give chlorite ion (ClO2–) and oxygen gas.
18 Which of the following are redox reactions and which are not?.Explain.
(a) NaCl + KNO3 → NaNO3 + KCl
(b) CaC2O4 + 2HCl → CaCl2 + H2C2O4
(c) MnO−4 + C2O2−4 + H+ → Mn2+ + CO2 + H2O
(d) Mg(OH)2 + 2NH4Cl → MgCl2 + 2NH4OH
(e) Zn + 2AgCN → 2Ag + Zn (CN)2
19 A compound contains atoms of three elements -A, B & C. If the oxidation number of A is
+2, B is +5 and that of C is -2 . Find the possible formula of the compound.
