Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) oxidation and reduction

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

So, the reactions can be written as, (i) \(\stackrel{0}{\mathrm{C}} \mathrm{u}+\stackrel{+1}{\mathrm{Ag}} \mathrm{SO}_2 \longrightarrow \stackrel{+2}{\mathrm{Cu}} \mathrm{SO}_4+2 \stackrel{0}{2 \mathrm{Ag}}\) (ii)…
