Solution

The correct option is C $C e (S O_{4})_{2}$
Ceric sulphate $C e (S O_{4})_{2}$ is most widely used as an oxidizing agent in the volumetric analysis.

Ce has +3 and +4 oxidation states. $C e^{+ 4}$ readily gains an electron to form $C e^{+ 3}$ and is reduced. Hence, it easily oxidizes other substances.
