Answer» drogen sulphide reacts with chlorine gas to give solid sulphur and HClBy balancing the equation we get, i) Oxidation number method:The BALANCED equation is as follows,Oxidation: Reduction: Where +2 state of Sulphur in the reactant gets OXIDIZED to ZERO state in the product and Zero state chlorine in the reactants gets reduced to in the productii) Ion electron method:a) B) C) d) e) f) g) This the final reaction where L.H.s is equal to R.H.Sh) i) This is a best example for redox reaction. Here, chlorine is the oxidizing agent which gets reduced itself to HCl and is the reducing agent which gets oxidized to sulphur. |
