Assertion : overset(+1-2)(H_(2)S)+overset(0)(Cl_(2))rarroverset(+1-1)(2HCl)+overset(0)S In the above reaction, Cl has been oxidised to Cl^(-) while S^(2-) has been reduced to S. Reason : In a reaction the element whose oxidation number decreases is reduced and element whose oxidation number increases is oxidised.

Cl_(2)+H_(2)S to 2HCl+S , In that above reaction oxidation state of chlorine changes from

What is the oxidation number of S in S_(2)Cl_(2)

Assertion :- H_(2) is the reducing agent and Cl_(2) is reduced in the reaction. H_(2)+Cl_(2)rarr2HCl Reason :- Reducing agent is the one which has been oxidised and decrease of oxidation number means reduction.

Assertion :- In a redox reaction, the oxidation number of the oxidant decreases while that of reductant increases. Reason :- Oxidant gains electron(s) while reductant loses electron(s).

Assertion : 3ClO^(-) rarr ClO_3^(-) +2Cl^(-) is an example of dissociation reaction. Reason : ClO^(-) gets oxidised as well as reduced.
