    In which of the following reaction the oxidation and reduction complete?

    A)  \[NaBr+HCl\text{ }\xrightarrow{{}}NaCl+\text{ }HBr\]

    B)  \[HBr+AgN{{O}_{3}}\xrightarrow{{}}AgBr+HN{{O}_{3}}\]

    C)  \[{{H}_{_{2}}}+B{{r}_{2}}\xrightarrow{{}}2HBr\]

    D)  \[N{{a}_{2}}O+{{H}_{2}}S{{O}_{4}}\xrightarrow{{}}N{{a}_{2}}S{{O}_{4}}+{{H}_{2}}O\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    \[{{\overset{0}{\mathop{H}}\,}_{2}}+\overset{0}{\mathop{B{{r}_{2}}}}\,\xrightarrow{{}}\overset{+1-1}{\mathop{2HBr}}\,\] (0 to \[+1\]) increases the oxidation number of H in the reaction and (0 to \[-1\]) increases the oxidation number of Br in the reaction. So this is called redox reaction.
