Vedclass · Answer

(D) Ozone $(O_3)$ decomposes readily to give nascent oxygen $([O])$. Due to the release of nascent oxygen,it acts as a powerful oxidizing agent and a bleaching agent. It oxidises lead sulphide $(PbS)$ to lead sulphate $(PbSO_4)$,potassium iodide $(KI)$ to iodine $(I_2)$,and mercury $(Hg)$ to mercurous oxide $(Hg_2O)$. Therefore,the statement that it cannot act as a bleaching agent is incorrect.
