Answer:

a substance that tends to bring about oxidation by being reduced and gaining electrons is called oxidizing agent.

Explanation:

Oxidising agent is the chemical which itself undergoes reduction reaction and forces other to accept electrons or to form bond with oxygen i.e to get oxidised. ... When an oxidising agent is added to propanol then an oxidation reaction takes place and propanoic acid is formed as a product.
