1.

Assertion: Among `Br^(-)`, `O_(2)^(2-)`, `H^(-)` and `NO_(3)^(-)`, the ions that cannot act as oxidising agents are `Br^(-)` and `H^(-)`. Reason: `Br^(-)` and `H^(-)` cannot be reduced.A. Statement-1 is True, Statement-2 is True, Statement-2 is a correct explanation for Statement-1B. Statement-1 is True, Statement-2 is True, Statement-2 is NOT a correct explanation for Statement-1C. Statement-1 is True, Statement-2 is False.D. Statement-1 is False, Statement-2 is True.

Answer» Correct Answer - A
`Br^(-)` and `H^(-)` are already in min oxidation state. So they cannot be further reduced and cannot act as oxidising agent.
