Question

Which of the following is not an oxidation-reduction reaction? A. Ca + 2 HCl ---> CaCl2 + H2 B. H2 + Cl2 ---> 2 HCl C. NaCl + LiNO3 ---> NaNO3 + LiCl D. 2 CO + 2 NO ---> 2 CO2 + N2 lol need help 8D!!

Answer 1

I think the correct answer is C. The chemical reaction NaCl + LiNO3 ---> NaNO3 + LiCl do not represent an oxidation-reduction reaction. An oxidation-reduction reaction involves the gaining and losing of electrons of the elements involved in a reaction where it is essential that as one is losing some electrons, the other is gaining the electrons lost.
