Answer

  1. In this redox reaction, H in LiAIH4 gets oxidized because of the addition of oxygen atom that leads to the formation of $\mathrm{OH}^{-}$Propanone $\left(\mathrm{CH}_3 \mathrm{COCH}_3\right)$ gets reduced because of addition of hydrogen atom to give propan-2-ol $\left(\mathrm{CH}_3 \mathrm{CH}(\mathrm{OH}) \mathrm{CH}_3\right)$.
  2. This is not a redox reaction as neither hydrogen or oxygen or electron is removed or added.
  3. This is not a redox reaction as neither hydrogen or oxygen or electron is removed or added.
