Explanation:

An oxidizing agent often referred to as an oxidizer or an oxidant, is a chemical species that tends to oxidize other substances, that is, cause an increase in the oxidation state of the substance by making it lose electrons. Common examples of oxidizing agents include halogens (such as chlorine and fluorine), oxygen, and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2).
