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.
