Question

Identity oxidizing agent
Mg+o2=2mgo
3fe+4h2o=fe3o4+4h2

Answer 1

Answer:

In 1st equation, oxidising agent is Oxygen or O2.

In 2nd equation,oxidising agent is water or H2O

Answer 2

Answer:

1)Mg+o2=2mgo

in this equation o2 is oxidising agent

2)3fe+4h2o=fe3o4+4h2

in this equation h2o is oxidising agent

Explanation:

in both the equation o2 and h2o are oxidising agent because both are causing oxidation i.e.in equation (1)o2 oxidises mg and in equation (2)h2o oxidises fe
