Let's look at the choices and see why they work, or don't work.
monosaccharide
* Otherwise known as a simple sugar. And NaCl is definitely not a sugar of any type. So this is wrong.
disaccharide
* Complex sugar. And NaCl doesn't qualify either.
organic
* A definition of an organic compound is one that has carbon in it. NaCl has sodium and chlorine. No carbon at all, so this isn't the right answer. And I wish that organic was an earlier choice, since the sugars mentioned above are organic compounds.
inorganic
* This is the only possible choice. Salt is not an organic compound since it doesn't have carbon. So it can't be a sugar either. But it can and is inorganic.</span>
Mass, if you know what element you are working with.
<u>Answer: </u>The correct answer is Option b.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Oxidizing agent is defined as the chemical reagent which helps the other chemical compound to get oxidized and itself gets reduced. The oxidation state for these species gets reduced because they are undergoing reduction reaction.
For the given chemical equation:
Oxidation state of Chromium is getting reduced from +6 to +3 and oxidation state of chlorine getting increased from -1 to 0.
Hence, 
acts like and oxidizing agent because it is itself getting reduced to 
Therefore, the correct answer is Option b.
Reactivity is the name your looking for I believe.
