Given below are two reactions of water with sodium and carbon dioxide. What is the nature of water in these reactions? (i) 2Na + 2H2O -> 2NaOH + H2 (ii) 6CO2 + 12H2O -> C6H12O6 + 6H2O + 6O2
A.In (ii) water acts as an oxidizing agent while in (i) it
B.In (i) water acts as an oxidizing agent while in (ii) it✓ Correct
C.In both, (i) and (ii) hydrogen acts as a reducing
D.In both, (i) and (ii) hydrogen acts as an oxidizing
Explanation
Based on the fact In 2 reaction, i H O is reduced to 2 H In 2 reaction, ii H O is oxidized to 2 O
