The correct option is A CO2
(a) Oxidation state of C in CO2 is +4. Since, carbon is in its maximum oxidation state of +4, therefore, carbon dioxide (CO2) cannot act as a reducing agent.
(b) Oxidation state of Cl in ClO2 is +4. Since, chlorine is not in its maximum oxidation state, therefore, (ClO2) can act as a reducing agent.
(c) Oxidation state of N in NO2 is +4. Since, nitrogen is not in its maximum oxidation state, therefore, (NO2) can act as a reducing agent.
(d) Oxidation state of S in SO2 is +4. Since, chlorine is not in its maximum oxidation state, therefore, (SO2) can act as a reducing agent.
