In the reaction shown below, oxidation state of the carbon in reactant and product are $(i)$ and
(ii) respectively? Is the given reaction a redox reaction? $\mathrm{Na}_{2} \mathrm{CO}_{3}(\mathrm{aq})+\mathrm{HCl}(\mathrm{aq}) \longrightarrow$
$\mathrm{Na}^{+}(\mathrm{aq})+\mathrm{Cl}^{-}(\mathrm{aq})+\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}(\mathrm{l})+\mathrm{CO}_{2}(\mathrm{~g})$
  1. (i) 6, (ii) 4 , yes
  2. (i) 6, (ii) $6, \mathrm{No}$
  3. (i) 4, (ii) 4, No
  4. (i) 4, (ii) 4, yes

Solution

The redox reaction involve loss or gain of electron(s) i.e. change in oxidation state. Given reaction is not a redox reaction as this reaction involves no change in oxidation state of reactant or product. ,
