Which reaction does not involve a redox process?

In \( \ce{MgSO4 + 2NaOH -> Mg(OH)2 + Na2SO4} \), no element changes oxidation state; it’s a double displacement reaction.

\( \ce{2Na + 2H2O -> 2NaOH + H2} \)
\( \ce{Fe + 2HCl -> FeCl2 + H2} \)
\( \ce{MgSO4 + 2NaOH -> Mg(OH)2 + Na2SO4} \)
\( \ce{2H2O2 -> 2H2O + O2} \)

Which of the following reactions demonstrates the removal of hydrogen, indicating an oxidation process?

Oxidation can involve hydrogen loss. In \( \ce{2H2S + O2 -> 2S + 2H2O} \), H₂S loses hydrogen to form S, indicating oxidation.

\( \ce{2H2S + O2 -> 2S + 2H2O} \)
\( \ce{H2 + Cl2 -> 2HCl} \)
\( \ce{2Na + 2H2O -> 2NaOH + H2} \)
\( \ce{Fe + H2SO4 -> FeSO4 + H2} \)

Which of the following reactions shows the gain of electrons by a species, indicating reduction?

Reduction involves electron gain. In \( \ce{2FeCl3 + SnCl2 -> 2FeCl2 + SnCl4} \), Fe (+3) gains an electron to become Fe (+2).

\( \ce{2FeCl3 + SnCl2 -> 2FeCl2 + SnCl4} \)
\( \ce{2Na + O2 -> Na2O2} \)
\( \ce{H2S + I2 -> 2HI + S} \)
\( \ce{2NH3 -> N2 + 3H2} \)
