The main reason for the brown ring test of $NO_3^-$ is:

In the following reaction,which substance acts as a reducing agent?
$14H^+ + Cr_2O_7^{2-} + 3Ni \to 2Cr^{3+} + 7H_2O + 3Ni^{2+}$

Consider the following reaction:
$BrCH_2CH_2F + SbF_5 \xrightarrow{SO_2, -60^{\circ}C} CH_2-CH_2-Br^+ + SbF_6^-$
In this reaction,$SbF_5$ acts as:

The strongest reducing agent among the following is:

Consider the reaction $H_2SO_{3(aq)} + Sn^{4+}_{(aq)} + H_2O_{(l)} \to Sn^{2+}_{(aq)} + HSO_4^-(aq) + 3H^{+}_{(aq)}$. Which of the following statements is correct?

Why does the following reaction occur?
$XeO_6^{4-}{(aq)} + 2F^{-}{(aq)} + 6H^{+}{(aq)} \rightarrow XeO_{3_{(g)}} + F_{2_{(g)}} + 3H_2O_{(l)}$
What conclusion about the compound $Na_4XeO_6$ (of which $XeO_6^{4-}$ is a part) can be drawn from the reaction?
