$$FeC{l_3}$$ acts as an oxidising agent
B
Both $${H_2}S$$ are $$FeC{l_3}$$ are oxidised
C
$$FeC{l_3}$$ is oxidised while $${H_2}S$$ is reduced
D
$${H_2}S$$ acts as an oxidising agent.

In $$2FeC{l_3} + {H_2}S \to 2FeC{l_2} + 2HCl + S$$
$$O.N.$$ of $$S$$ changes from $$–2$$ to $$0$$ ( hence
oxidised ) $$O.N.$$ of $$Fe$$ changes from $$+3$$ to $$+2$$ hence reduced.

$${I_2} + O{H^ - } \to IO_3^ - + {I^ - } + {H_2}O$$
Oxidation half : $${I_2} + O{H^ - } \to IO_3^ - + {H_2}O$$
Reduction half : $${I_2} \to {I^ - }$$
Oxidation half :
Adding $$O{H^ - },{I_2} + 12O{H^ - } \to 2IO_3^ - + 6{H_2}O$$
Adding electrons : $${I_2} + 12O{H^ - } \to 2IO_3^ - + 6{H_2}O + 10{e^ - }$$
Reduction half : Balancing $${e^ - },{I_2} + 2{e^ - } \to 2{I^ - }$$
$$\left. {{I_2} + 2{e^ - } \to 2{I^ - }} \right] \times 5$$
Adding both reactions
$$6{I_2} + 12O{H^ - } \to 2IO_3^ - + 10{I^ - } + 6{H_2}O$$
Dividing by $$2,3{I_2} + 6O{H^ - } \to IO_3^ - + 5{I^ - } + 3{H_2}O$$
