The pair of compounds that can exist together is
To solve this problem, we need to determine which pair of compounds can coexist without reacting with each other.Let's analyze each option:Option 1: and ⢠is a strong oxidizing agent, while is a reducing agent.⢠They will react with each other, so they cannot coexist.Option 2: and ⢠is not a strong oxidizing agent, and is a reducing agent.⢠However, under certain conditions, can reduce to metallic mercury.⢠Therefore, they may not coexist without reacting.Option 3: and ⢠Both and are reducing agents.⢠They do not react with each other, so they can coexist.Option 4: and ⢠is a strong oxidizing agent, and is a reducing agent.⢠They will react with each other, so they cannot coexist.Therefore, the pair of compounds that can exist together is and This corresponds to Option 3.
