Riddle i think it does require water
It is dry bleaching since it bleaches by the process of reduction.
I think O3......cos it bleaches thro' the production of nascent oxygen by the reaction
O3------> O2+[O]
I'M NOT SURE THOUGH
yes strider i agree wid u ...its O3 i think...due to the production of active oxygen ie nascent oxygen
Actually, SO2 is a reducing agent. When it reacts with water, it produces sulfonic acid, H2SO3. The anion of this acid is sulfite and bisulfite. These are added to foods to block the action of oxidation from atmospheric oxygen.
Hint: Look up the Kraft sulfite bleaching process.
and as abhi, strider(ani) and arathi say, ozone is correct
