Vedclass · Accepted Answer

$2HI + H_2SO_4 \rightarrow I_2 + SO_2 + 2H_2O$

Vedclass · Answer

(C) In the reaction $2HI + H_2SO_4 \rightarrow I_2 + SO_2 + 2H_2O$,the oxidation state of sulfur $(S)$ decreases from $+6$ in $H_2SO_4$ to $+4$ in $SO_2$,indicating reduction. Simultaneously,the oxidation state of iodine $(I)$ increases from $-1$ in $HI$ to $0$ in $I_2$,indicating oxidation. Since $H_2SO_4$ causes the oxidation of $HI$ while being reduced itself,it acts as an oxidizing agent.

Which of the following chemical reactions depicts the oxidizing behavior of $H_2SO_4$?
