    Which of the following reaction is not a redox reaction?

    A)  \[{{\operatorname{CaCO}}_{3}} \xrightarrow{{}} CaO + C{{O}_{2}}\]

    B)  \[\operatorname{Na}\,\,+\,\,{{H}_{2}}O\,\,\xrightarrow{{}}\,\,NaOH\,\,+\frac{1}{2}\,{{H}_{2}}\]

    C)  \[{{\operatorname{MnCl}}_{3}}\,\,\xrightarrow{{}}\,\,MnC{{l}_{2}}\,+\,\,\frac{1}{2}C{{l}_{2}}\]

    D)  \[{{O}_{2}}+2{{H}_{2}}\,\xrightarrow{{}}\,2{{H}_{2}}O\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    \[\overset{+\,2\,+}{\mathop{Ca}}\,\overset{4\,-\,2}{\mathop{C{{O}_{3}}}}\, \,\to \,\,\overset{+\,2}{\mathop{Ca}}\,\overset{-\,2}{\mathop{O}}\, + \overset{+}{\mathop{C}}\,{{\overset{4}{\mathop{O}}\,}_{2}}\] Since, there is no change in the oxidation state of element, it is not a redox reaction.
