Match the following column-I and column-II :
(
)
| Column I | Column II | ||
| (a) | H_2 S | (p) | Oxidising agent |
| (b) | KMnO_4 | (q) | Reducing agent |
| (c) | H_2 O_2 | (r) |
Options
- A(a-r),(b-p),(c-q)
- B(a-q),(b-p),(c-r)
- C(a-p),(b-q),(c-r)
- D(a-r),(b-q),(c-p)
Correct answer
B. (a-q),(b-p),(c-r)
Step-by-step solution
Let's match the substances:
- (a) (\mathrm{H}_{\mathrm{2}} \mathrm{S}) : It is a reducing agent (since sulfur in (\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{~S}) can be oxidized). So, match (a) with (q).
- (b) (\mathrm{KMnO}_4) : It is a strong oxidizing agent (especially in acidic medium). So, match (b) with (p).
- (c) (\mathrm{H}_{\mathrm{2}} \mathrm{O}_{\mathrm{2}}) : It can act as both an oxidizing and reducing agent depending on the reaction. So, match (c) with (r).
Thus, the correct matching is: .
