Solution

(a) Metal oxides react with hydrochloric acid to liberate chlorine gas. In these reactions, hydrochloric acid is oxidised to chlorine, thereby, depicting its reducing property.

(b) Reaction with concentrated hydrochloric acid can be represented as follows:

Pb₃O₄(s) + 8HCl(aq) → 3PbCl₂(aq) + 4H₂O(l) + Cl₂(g)
Trilead Lead chloride
tetroxide
(red)
