NEET Chemistry Balancing Redox Reactions MCQ Question
Which of the following statements about balancing redox reactions is correct?
The reaction of iodine with thiosulphate ions can be balanced by tracking the consumption of iodine through a color change.
Balancing redox reactions involves considering only the oxidation states of the reactants, ignoring electron transfer.
In redox reactions, only the reducing agent experiences a change in oxidation state.
The end-point of redox reactions can be identified without any visual indicators or color changes.
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
The reaction between iodine and thiosulphate ions is a classic redox reaction where the change in color due to starch indicates the end-point of the reaction, as stated in the NCERT context.
