Q
Q: In redox reactions, which of the following statements is true?
Solution:
Oxidizing agents are reduced as they gain electrons during redox reactions.
Steps: 5
Show Steps
Step 1: Understand what a redox reaction is. A redox reaction involves the transfer of electrons between two substances.
Step 2: Identify the two key roles in a redox reaction: the oxidizing agent and the reducing agent.
Step 3: Know that the oxidizing agent is the substance that gains electrons during the reaction.
Step 4: Recognize that when the oxidizing agent gains electrons, it is reduced (its oxidation state decreases).
Step 5: Conclude that the statement 'Oxidizing agents are reduced as they gain electrons during redox reactions' is true.
