Question

Assertion: The chemical reaction during which hydrogen is lost is called reduction reaction.
Reason: Reducing agent removes hydrogen.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Both are false. Neither is correct.

Answer 2

Answer:

An oxidation reaction is a chemical process in which oxygen is added to or hydrogen is removed from an element, molecule, or compound, and Reducing agents take oxygen from or add hydrogen to another material. and hence assertion and reason both are incorrect

Explanation:

Reactions in which an element interacts with oxygen are referred to as oxidation reactions.

A reduction chemical process involves increasing the number of electrons associated with a single atom or a group of atoms.

Comparison

• The full loss of electrons is referred to as oxidation. Reduction is total electron gain.
• Oxidation is defined as a rise in the oxidation number. Reduction is defined as a reduction in the number of oxidations.
• The loss of hydrogen in a molecular substance is referred to as oxidation.

Reducing agents remove oxygen from other substances or add hydrogen to them.

Oxidizing agents either supply oxygen to or remove hydrogen from another material.

Comparison

• An oxidizing agent, often known as an oxidant, gets electrons and undergoes reduction. Because it will receive electrons and be reduced, the oxidizing agent, also known as the electron acceptor, is usually in one of its higher potential oxidation states.
• A reducing agent, also known as a reductant, oxidizes after losing electrons. When a reducing chemical is at one of its lowest oxidation states, it is referred to as an electron donor. A reducing agent is oxidized because it loses electrons during the redox process.
