Reducing nature of metals
Explanation:
Metals
They are the elements that has one , two or three valence electrons in its outermost shell .
They always loose electrons to form electropositive ions .
Oxidation and reduction in terms of electronic concept
Oxidation
Loss of electrons by a element .
- Oxidising agent : that oxidises others and itself gets reduced .
Reduction
Gain of electrons by a element
- Reducing agents
They are those agents that reduces others and itself gets oxidised .
Metals act as reducing agents as they can easily loose electrons because of their unstable electronic configuration and low ionisation energy .
