Answer:

Calcium is a reducing agent.

Explanation:

To identify whether calcium is an oxidizing agent or a reducing agent, the ionic charge of calcium must be found.

Calcium belongs to the second group elements of the periodic table. All the elements present in group 2 have a +2 charge. Therefore the charge of calcium is Ca^{2+}Ca

2+

.

From the charge, it is evident that calcium involved in bonding by losing 2 electrons.

As Ca is oxidized to Ca^{2+}Ca

2+

, it acts as a reducing agent as it makes reduction to happen.
