Which substance is serving as a reducing agent in the following reaction?
`14H^(+)+Cr_(2)O_(7)^(2-)+3Ni rarr 2Cr^(3+)+7H_(2)O+3Ni^(2+)`

A

`Cr_(2)O_(7)^(2-)`

B

Ni

C

`H^(+)`

D

`H_(2)O`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
`14H^(+)+Cr_(2)O_(7)^(2-)+3Ni rarr 2Cr^(3+)+7H_(2)O+3Ni^(2+)`
`Ni rarr Ni^(2+)` (oxidation )
Hence, Ni acts as a reducing agent.
