Name the substance oxidised and reduced,...

Name the substance oxidised and reduced, and also identify the oxidising agents and reducing agents in the following reactions :
`H_(2)S+SO_(2)toS+H_(2)O`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`2H_(2)S+SO_(2)to3S+2H_(2)O`
`H_(2)S` has lost H to change into S. Thus, it has been oxidised. `SO_(2)` has lost O to change into S. Thus, it has been reduced. `H_(2)S` has acted as reducing agent while `SO_(2)` has acted as oxidising agent.
