Which of the following can act both as an oxidising agent and as a reducing agent?
Options:(select one or more)
Answer:
A, B
Solution:
In SO₂ (S = +4) and HNO₂ (N = +3) the central atom is in an intermediate oxidation state, so both can be oxidised and reduced. In H₂SO₄ (S = +6, maximum) and O₃ the element can only be reduced - they act only as oxidising agents.
