In the reaction
`2FeCl_(3)+H_(2)Srarr2FeCl_(2)+2HCl+S`

A

`FeCl_(3)` acts as an oxidising agent

B

Both `H_(2)S` and `FeCl_(3)` are oxidised

C

`FeCl_(3)` is oxidised while `H_(2)S` is reduced

D

`H_(2)S` acts as an oxidising agent

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
`e^(-)+Fe^(3+)rarrFe^2+) ("Reduction")`
Therefore, `FeCl_(3)` acts as an oxidising agent.
