Which of the following is an example of redox reaction ?

1.	Which of the following is an example of redox reaction ?
Answer» `XeF_(6)+H_(2)OrarrXeO_(2)F_(2)+4Hf` `XeF_(6)+2H_(2)OrarrXeO_(2)F_(2)+4Hf` `XeF_(4)+O_(2)F_(2)rarrXeF_(6)+O_(2)` `XeF_(2)+PF_(5)RARR[XeF]^(+)PF_(6)^(-)` Solution :`(a)overset(+6)Xeoverset(-1)F_+(6)+H_(2)Orarroverset(+6)XeOF_(4)+2HF` `(b) overset(+6)XeF_(6)+2H_(2)OrarrXeO_(2)F_(2)+4HF^(-)` (c ) (d)`XeF_(2)+PF_(5)rarr[xeF]^(+)PF_(6)^(-)` In option (a) ,(b)and (d) O.N of the atoms remains the same but in option (c ) O.N of Xe increasses from +4 in `XeF_(4)` to +6 in `XeF_(6)` while the O.N of P DECREASES from +1 in `O_(2)F_(2)` to 0 in `O_(2)F_(2)`in `O_(2)` thus it is a REDOX reaction
