    Which one of the following act as an reducing agent?

    A)  \[Y{{b}^{2+}}\]                

    B)  \[S{{m}^{4+}}\]

    C)  \[E{{u}^{4+}}\]                

    D)  \[N{{p}^{4+}}\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

                    All transition element which have +2 oxidation state, can change to +3 oxidation state and act as reducing agent. Therefore, \[Y{{b}^{2+}}\]acts as reducing agent while those having +4 oxidation state tend to change to +3 oxidation state and act as oxidising agents.
