    Which of the following is a redox reaction?

    A) \[CaC{{O}_{3}}\to CaO+C{{O}_{2}}\]

    B) \[CuO+{{H}_{2}}\to Cu+{{H}_{2}}O\]

    C) \[CaO+2HCl\to CaC{{l}_{2}}+{{H}_{2}}O\]

    D) \[NaOH+HCl\to NaCl+{{H}_{2}}O\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    In the given reaction \[{{H}_{2}}\] is oxidised to \[{{H}_{2}}O\] and \[\text{CuO}\] is reduced to Cu. As oxidation and reduction are taking place simultaneously, it is called a redox reaction.
