Correct Answer: B
Solution :
In presence of moisture, \[\text{S}{{\text{O}}_{\text{2}}}\] acts as a reducing agent as it gives nascent hydrogen. It reduces hydrogen peroxide into water. \[\text{S}{{\text{O}}_{2}}+2{{H}_{2}}O\xrightarrow{{}}{{H}_{2}}S{{O}_{4}}+2H\] \[{{H}_{2}}{{O}_{2}}+2H\xrightarrow{{}}2{{H}_{2}}O\]You need to login to perform this action.
