Hot concentrated sulphuric acid is a moderately strong oxidizing agent. Which of the following reactions does not show oxidizing behaviour?

  • A
    Cu+2H2SO4→CuSO4+SO2+2H2O
  • B
    3S+2H2SO4→3SO2+2H2O
  • C
    C+2H2SO4→CO2+2SO2+2H2O
  • Correct answer
    D
    CaF2+H2SO4→CaSO4+2HF

Solution

CaF2+H2SO4→CaSO4+2HF

In this reaction, there is no change in oxidation state of any atom.

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'D'.
