Identify the element oxidized, the element reduced, the oxidizing agent, and the reducing agent for the following equation ch3oh + cr2o7^2- -> ch2o + cr^3+

The element that gains electrons, becomes reduced.

While the one which loses electrons, becomes oxidized.

In this equation,

CH₃OH + Cr₂O₇²⁻ --> CH₂O + Cr³⁺.

By balancing the equation, we will get:

3CH₃OH + Cr₂O₇²⁻ + 8H⁺ --> 3CH₂O + 2Cr³⁺ + 7H₂O

Here the oxidation state of Cr changes from +6 to +3 that is it is being reduced thus serving as a oxidizing agent while other element retain their charges.

Here Cr₂O₇²⁻ is reduced while CH₃OH is oxidized.

So Cr₂O₇²⁻ serves as a oxidizing agent, while CH₃OH serves as reducing agent .

chemical properties are the characteristic of matter which can only be observed by changing the chemical identity of a sample like flammability reactivity and toxicity.

no, the red giant is the hottest with 2.00.000.000 degrees celsius. while the white dwarf only 25,000 degrees celsius.
