Which of the following is the strongest reducing agent?
- A \(\mathrm{TeO}_3\)
- B \(\mathrm{SO}_3\)
- C \(\mathrm{TeO}_2\)
- D \(\mathrm{SO}_2\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(D) \(\mathrm{SO}_2\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Among \(\mathrm{S}\) and \(\mathrm{Te}, \mathrm{S}\) will be more stable in +6 state than in +4 state due to inert pair effect. That is why \(\mathrm{SO}_2\) is the strongest reducing agent.
