Answer 1

Answer:

(i) a) H₂ (Hydrogen gas) is getting oxidised.

   b) CuO (Copper oxide) is getting reduced.

   c) CuO is the oxidising agent.

   d) H₂ is the reducing agent.

(ii) a) CO (Carbon Monoxide) is getting oxidised.

    b) Fe₂O₃ (Ferrics Oxide) is getting reduced.

    c) Fe₂O₃ is the oxidising agent.

    d) CO is the reducing agent.

Answer 2

To get oxidized means to get oxygen.

To get reduced means to get oxygen reduced.

In the first equation, copper gets its oxygen reduced,

and hydrogen gets oxygen.

In the second equation, iron gets its oxygen reduced,

and carbon gets oxygen.

(a) Hydrogen and carbon gets oxidized.

(b) Copper and iron gets reduced.

Oxidizing agent means substances that give oxygen to reducing agent.

Reducing agent means substances that gets oxygen from oxidizing agent.

(c) CuO and Fe₂O₃ are oxidizing agent.

(d) H₂ and CO are reducing agent.
