Solution

The correct options are
C $N H_{4} C l + N a O H ⟶ N a C l + N H_{3} + H_{2} O$
D $4 K C N + F e {(C N)}_{2} ⟶ K_{4} [F e {(C N)}_{6}]$
The reactions are as follows:
$2 R b + 2 H_{2} O ⟶ 2 R b O H + H_{2}$
0 +1 +2 0
$2 C u I_{2} ⟶ 2 C u I + I_{2}$
+2 +1 0
$N H_{4} C l + N a O H ⟶ N a C l + N H_{3} + H_{2} O$
$4 K C N + F e {(C N)}_{2} ⟶ K_{4} [F e {(C N)}_{6}]$
As we can see that in (C) and (D), the oxidation numbers of the various elements do not change.
Therefore, they are not redox reactions.
