$CO_2$ and $SO_2$ gases can be distinguished by using:

Which of the following can act as both a reducing and an oxidising agent?

Suggest a scheme of classification of the following redox reactions:
$(a) N_{2(g)} + O_{2(g)} \rightarrow 2NO_{(g)}$
$(b) 2Pb(NO_3)_{2(s)} \rightarrow 2PbO_{(s)} + 4NO_{2(g)} + O_{2(g)}$
$(c) NaH_{(s)} + H_2O_{(l)} \rightarrow NaOH_{(aq)} + H_{2(g)}$
$(d) 2NO_{2(g)} + 2OH^{-}_{(aq)} \rightarrow NO_2^-(aq) + NO_3^-(aq) + H_2O_{(l)}$

Oxidising power of chlorine in aqueous solution can be determined by the parameters indicated below:
$\frac{1}{2} Cl_{2(g)}$ $\xrightarrow{\frac{1}{2} \Delta_{diss} H^{\Theta}} Cl_{(g)}$ $\xrightarrow{\Delta_{eg} H^{\Theta}} Cl^{-}_{(g)}$ $\xrightarrow{\Delta_{Hyd} H^{\Theta}} Cl^{-}_{(aq)}$
(using the data,$\Delta_{diss} H_{Cl_2}^{\Theta} = 240 \ kJ \ mol^{-1}$,$\Delta_{eg} H_{Cl}^{\Theta} = -349 \ kJ \ mol^{-1}$,$\Delta_{Hyd} H_{Cl}^{\Theta} = -381 \ kJ \ mol^{-1}$) will be ............. $kJ \ mol^{-1}$.
