The correct Answer is:
To determine which of the given reactions do not involve oxidation-reduction (redox) processes, we will analyze each reaction one by one. ### Step 1: Analyze Reaction I **Reaction I:** \[ 2Cs + 2H_2O \rightarrow 2CsOH + H_2 \] - **Oxidation States:** - Cesium (Cs) in reactants: 0 (elemental form) - Cesium (Cs) in products: +1 (in CsOH) - Hydrogen (H) in water: +1 - Hydrogen (H) in products (H2): 0 - **Change in Oxidation States:** - Cs: 0 to +1 (oxidation) - H: +1 to 0 (reduction) Since there is both oxidation and reduction occurring, this is a redox reaction. ### Step 2: Analyze Reaction II **Reaction II:** \[ 2CuI_2 \rightarrow 2CuI + I_2 \] - **Oxidation States:** - Copper (Cu) in CuI2: +1 - Copper (Cu) in CuI: +1 - Iodine (I) in CuI2: -1 - Iodine (I) in I2: 0 - **Change in Oxidation States:** - Cu: +1 to +1 (no change) - I: -1 to 0 (oxidation) Here, iodine is oxidized, but copper does not change its oxidation state. This reaction does involve oxidation but does not involve reduction. Therefore, this reaction is not a complete redox reaction. ### Step 3: Analyze Reaction III **Reaction III:** \[ NH_4Br + KOH \rightarrow KBr + NH_3 + H_2O \] - **Oxidation States:** - Nitrogen (N) in NH4Br: -3 - Nitrogen (N) in NH3: -3 - Bromine (Br) in NH4Br: -1 - Bromine (Br) in KBr: -1 - Oxygen (O) in H2O: -2 - Hydrogen (H) in H2O: +1 - **Change in Oxidation States:** - N: -3 to -3 (no change) - Br: -1 to -1 (no change) - O and H do not change their oxidation states in a way that involves redox. Since there are no changes in oxidation states, this is not a redox reaction. ### Step 4: Analyze Reaction IV **Reaction IV:** \[ 4KCN + Fe(CN)_2 \rightarrow K_4[Fe(CN)_6] \] - **Oxidation States:** - K: +1 (remains +1) - C in CN: -1 (remains -1) - Fe in Fe(CN)2: +2 (remains +2) - C in K4[Fe(CN)6]: -1 (remains -1) - **Change in Oxidation States:** - K: +1 to +1 (no change) - C: -1 to -1 (no change) - Fe: +2 to +2 (no change) Since there are no changes in oxidation states, this is also not a redox reaction. ### Conclusion The reactions that do not involve oxidation-reduction are: - **Reaction II:** \( 2CuI_2 \rightarrow 2CuI + I_2 \) - **Reaction III:** \( NH_4Br + KOH \rightarrow KBr + NH_3 + H_2O \) - **Reaction IV:** \( 4KCN + Fe(CN)_2 \rightarrow K_4[Fe(CN)_6] \) Thus, the answer is that reactions II, III, and IV do not involve oxidation-reduction.

To determine which of the given reactions do not involve oxidation-reduction (redox) processes, we will analyze each reaction one by one. ### Step 1: Analyze Reaction I **Reaction I:** \[ 2Cs + 2H_2O \rightarrow 2CsOH + H_2 \] - **Oxidation States:** - Cesium (Cs) in reactants: 0 (elemental form) ...
