Answer:
An oxidation-reduction (redox) reaction is a type of chemical reaction that involves a transfer of electrons between two species. In redox reaction the oxidation number of a molecule, atom, or ion changes by gaining or losing an electron.
In the reaction : CuO+H2⟶Cu+H2O
n the reaction H2 is oxidized since it has lost electrons and Cu is reduced since it has gained electrons.

Explanation:
As a copper is reduced from copper oxide so copper oxide is reducing agent.
...
Cuo+ H20= CU + H20.
1) Here the oxidized substance is
= H20. As the oxygen is added to hydrogen.
2) Here the reduced substance =Cu.
3) Oxidizing agent is copper oxide.
