Consider the following reactions,
(I) `2Mn_(2)O_(7) rarr 4MnO_(2) + 3O_(2)`
(II) `SnCl_(2) + 2FeCl_(3) rarr SnCl_(4) + 2FeCl_(2)`

A

`SnCl_(2)` is oxidised and `FeCl_(3)` acts as oxidising agent.

B

`FeCl_(3)` is oxidised and acts as oxidising agent.

C

`SnCl_(2)` is reduced and acts as oxidising agent.

D

`FeCl_(3)` is oxidised and `SnCl_(2)` acts as a oxidising agent.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

`snCl_(2)+2FeCl_(3)rarr SnCl_(4)+2FeCl_(2)`
Oxidation number of Sn chenges from +2 to +4, it is oxidised and acts as a reducing agent.
Oxidation number of Fe changes from +3 to +2 , it is reduced and acts as an oxidising agent.
