Which reaction is NOT a redox reaction? Option 4: BaCl 2 + Na 2 SO 4 → BaSO 4 + 2NaCl Explanation: A redox reaction involves a change in oxidation states of the reacting species. Let's analyze each option: Option 1: Zn + CuSO 4 → ZnSO 4 + Cu Zn (0) → Zn 2+ (oxidation) Cu 2+ → Cu (0) (reduction) This is a redox reaction. Option 2: 2KClO 3 + I 2 → 2KIO 3 + Cl 2 Cl +5 → Cl 2 (0) (reduction) I 2 (0) → I +5 (oxidation) This is a redox reaction. Option 3: H 2 + Cl 2 → 2HCl H 2 (0) → H +1 (oxidation) Cl 2 (0) → Cl -1 (reduction) This is a redox reaction. Option 4: BaCl 2 + Na 2 SO 4 → BaSO 4 + 2NaCl This is a double displacement reaction. The oxidation states of all the elements remain unchanged: Ba 2+ , Cl - , Na + , SO 4 2- remain the same on both sides of the equation. Therefore, this is not a redox reaction.
