Q26 / 90 · JEE Main 2017 (02 Apr) · Chemistry

Which of the following reactions is an example of a redox reaction?

  • A
    XeF2+PF5→XeF+PF6-
  • B
    XeF6+H2O→XeOF4+2HF
  • C
    XeF6+2H2O→XeO2F2+4HF
  • Correct answer
    D
    XeF4+O2F2→XeF6+O2

Solution

Redox reaction: ↓ Se=Decrease, ↑Se=Increase
Figure

XeF4 is oxidized while O2F2 is reduced.

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