Which of the following will produce NO on reaction with $NO_{2}^{-}$ in acidic medium ?

Answer:

A, B, C, D

Solution:

In acidic medium, NO₂⁻ acts as an oxidizing agent and gets reduced to NO.

Species like S²⁻, SO₃²⁻, S₂O₃²⁻, I⁻ are good reducing agents.

They reduce nitrite ion to nitric oxide (NO) while themselves get oxidized.

Hence, all given species produce NO with NO₂⁻ in acidic medium.

Correct answer: A, B, C, D.
