MCQ
Bleaching action of $S{O_2}$ is due to its
  • A
    Oxidising property and nitrogen 
  • B
    Acidic property
  • C
    Basic property
  • Reducing property

Answer

Correct option: D.
Reducing property
d
(d) $S{O_2}$ act as bleaching agent due to its reducing property.

$S{O_2} + 2{H_2}O \to {H_2}S{O_4} + 2H$

Coloured matter + $H$ $ \to $ Colourless matter
