    S changed orange potassium dichromate (vi)to green potassium dichromate (iii).Therefore the solution must be containing an oxidizing agent.

    Well Done both.

    Answers is indeed C. Some students tends to have problems when it comes to Reducing and Oxidizing Agents.

    i think its C too.

    S reduces the orange potassium dichromate (VI) to green potassium dichromate (III),
    hence, S must be a reducing agent.

    Orange potassium dichromate (VI) is reduced to green chromium (III) ions, so it’s an oxidizing agent.

    Hence, the solution must be a reducing agent…

    C?
