Question

2PbO + C = 2Pb = CO2

name the substance oxidised
substance redueced
reducing agent
oxidizing agent

Answer 1

here is your answer

2PbO is reduced to 2Pb

C is oxidised to CO2

oxidising agent - 2PbO

reducing agent - C

Identify the substance s that are oxidised and the substances that are reduced in the given reaction: 2PbO + C------------> 2Pb +CO2

solution:

            Oxidation means addition of oxygen or removal of hydrogen.

           Reduction means addition of hydrogen or removal of Oxygen.

                       2PbO + C------------> 2Pb +CO2

So in the above reaction ,

                   1. Pb is reduced .  ( From PbO to Pb ) .

                    2. C is oxidised (From C to CO2 ) .

Hope this helps You!!
