The number of ions from the following that are expected to behave as oxidising agent is:

\mathrm{Sn}^{4+}, \mathrm{Sn}^{2+}, \mathrm{Pb}^{2+}, \mathrm{Tl}^{3+}, \mathrm{Pb}^{4+}, \mathrm{Tl}^{+}

View answer and explanation

Correct option: D

Option D (2) is correct because Tl3+ and Pb4+ are strong oxidizing agents due to the inert pair effect, making them more stable in their lower oxidation states.
