As we learnt in

Redox Reaction -

Redox reaction as a class of reactions in which oxidation and reduction reactions occur simultaneously.

-

 

 CaF_{2}+H_{2}SO_{4}\rightarrow CaSO_{4}+2HF

Here the oxidation state of every atom remains the same so, it is not a redox reaction.

Correct option is 4.

 


Option 1)

Cu + 2H2SO4 \rightarrow CuSO4 + SO2 + 2H2O

Incorrect

Option 2)

3S + 2H2SO4 \rightarrow 3SO2 + 2H2O

Incorrect

Option 3)

C + 2H2SO4 \rightarrow CO2 + 2SO2 + 2H2O

Incorrect

Option 4)
