Answer:
Explanation:
1 ) Cl₂ + ZnBr₂ = ZnCl₂ + Br₂
In this reaction , oxidation number of Cl decreases from 0 to -1 so it is reduced and oxidation number of Br increases from -1 to 0 so it is oxidised . Hence this reaction is oxidation - reduction reaction .
2 )
Pb( ClO₄)₂ + 2KI = PbI₂ + 2KClO₄
In this reaction oxidation number of none is changing so it is not an oxidation - reduction reaction.
3 )
CaCO₃ = CaO + CO₂
In this reaction also oxidation number of none is changing so it is not an oxidation - reduction reaction.
So only first reaction is oxidation - reduction reaction.
2nd option is correct.
