Question

Identify the reductant and oxidant 2pbo+c→2pb+co2​

Answer 1

Answer :-

Reductant = C (Carbon)

Oxidant = 2PbO (Lead oxide)

• What is oxidising agent?
• The substances that have the ability to oxidize other substances, in simple terms they donate oxygen. In above reaction, PbO is giving oxygen C, Therefore its oxidising agent.

• What is Reducing agent or Reductant?
• The substances that have ability to gain oxygen or lose hydrogen, in simple terms they gain oxygen. In the above reaction we can see that C (carbon) is gaining oxygen therefore its reducing agent.
