Solution
Here, water is oxidising carbon and self gets reduced.
Hence, water is acting as an oxidizing agent here.
In option (A), water is acting as an reduction agent as F2 is getting reduced. Similarly in option (D) also, it is acting as an reducing agent as Cl2 is getting reduced here.
In option (C), there is no change in oxidation number.
