Question

Which substance undergoes oxidation, reduction and which are oxidising agents and reducing agents in the following reaction. Also find the type of reactions are balanced:- (i)Mg+HCI-----MgCl2+H2​

Answer 1

Explanation:

A reducing agent is a substance that causes another substance to reduce. So to identify an oxidizing agent, simply look at the oxidation number of an atom before and after the reaction. If the oxidation number is greater in the product, then it lost electrons and the substance was oxidized.
