Lithium, sodium, potassium, rubidium, cesium, and francium
Answer:
A) oxidizing agent is SO2
B) NaClO is the oxidizing agent
Explanation:
A) This is a redox reaction in which oxidation and reduction occur simultaneously.
Thus, in 2H2S(g) + SO2(g) -> 2H2O(l) + 3S(s);
H2S is reduced as follows;
H2S → S + 2H+ + 2e−
We can see that SO2 has been reduced while H2S gets oxidized since it has changed state from - 2 to 0 . Thus sulphur dioxide is the oxidizing agent.
B) SO2(g) + H2O(l) + NaClO(aq) -> NaCl(aq) + H2SO4(aq)
In this, SO2 undergoes oxidation and NaClO is the oxidizing agent
Group 1 and group 7 of element group consists of alkali metal, which are generally combined with other elements in nature, so they have properties of compound
