Oxidising agent in a redox reaction- A2+ plus B gives B2+plus A
Explanation:
In the given reaction
- The oxidation state of the reactant is +2.
- Oxidation state of reactant B is zero.
- Oxidation state of product A is zero
- Oxidation state of product is +2.
From the above points, it can be said that A is reduced and B is oxidized.
So, the one which itself is reduced act as an oxidising agent and the reactant that itself gets oxidised act as reducing agent.
Hence, is Oxidising agent.
