Cartain materials such as turpentine oil, unsaturated organic compound, phosophorus, metals such as `Zn`, and `Pb`, etc., can absorb `O_(2)` from air in the presence of `H_(2)O`, which is converted to absorb `O_(2)` from air in the presence of `H_(2)O`, which is converted to `H_(2)O_(2)`. This is called autoxidation. Intermolecular redox reactions are those in which one molecule is oxidised and the other is reduced. Intramolecular redox reactions are those in which oen atom of a molecule is oxidised and the other atom is reduced.
Which of the following statements about the reaction is`//`are correct?
`2AsCl_(4)^(ө)+3Znrarr2Au+3Zn^(2+)+8Cl^(ө)`

Options

A. `AuCl_(4)^(ө)` is reduced to `Au`
B. `Zn` is oxidised to `Zn^(2+)`
C. `Cl^(ө)` is a spectator ion.
D. It is an intermolecular redox reaction.

Answer

A, B, C, D

Explanation

All statements are correct.
`Cl^(ө)` ion remains unchanged. It is a spectator ion.
