Chapter 22, Problem 123SAE
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The best reducing agent should be selected from the following:
H2S; O3; H2SO4; NaF; H2O
Concept introduction:
A compound is reducing in nature if it can donate electrons and itself gets oxidized. During this process, the oxidation state of one of element increases.
An oxidizing agent is one which can accept electrons.
