3 Assertion: The reaction, MnO2 + 4HCl ⟶ MnCl2 + 2H2 O + Cl2 is an example of redox
reaction.
Reason: In this reaction, HCl is reduced to Cl2 whereas MnO2 is oxidized to MnCl2 .
5 Assertion: In a reaction.
Reason: In a redox reaction, oxidant is reduced by accepting electrons and reductant is oxidized
by losing electrons.
8 Assertion: In the following chemical equation, CuO(s) + Zn(s) ⟶ ZnO(s) + Cu(s) Zinc is
getting oxidised and copper oxide is getting reduced.
Reason: The process in which oxygen is added to a substance is called oxidation whereas the
process in which oxygen is removed from a substance is called reduction.
