What is a good reducing agent? A. A substance that is good at oxidizing another atom

B. A substance that is good at reducing another atom

C. A substance that is a good electron acceptor

D. A substance that is easily reduced in a reaction

B. A substance that is good at reducing another atom

Explanation:

Reducing agents:

Reducing agents reduced the other element are it self gets oxidized.  They have very low ionization energy and easily lose the electron.

Consider the following reactions.

4KI + 2CuCl₂  →   2CuI  + I₂  + 4KCl

the oxidation state of copper is changed from +2 to +1 so copper get reduced.  It means it gain one more electron.

CO + H₂O   →  CO₂ + H₂

the oxidation state of carbon is +2 on reactant  side and on product side it becomes  +4 so carbon get oxidized.  Carbon loses it two more electron and act as reducing agent.

Oxidizing agents:

Oxidizing agents oxidize the other elements and itself gets reduced.

Oxidation:

Oxidation involve the removal of electrons and oxidation state of atom of an element is increased.

Reduction:

Reduction involve the gain of electron and oxidation number is decreased.

when [oh-] is 10-5  m, and [h3o+] is 10-9  m, the poh is 5 and ph is 9. again in both cases the sum of ph and poh is 14. however, the hydrogen ion concentration is not always going to be equal to exactly 1 x 10 raised to a negative number. for example, we skipped over the value of 2.0 x 10-7.

smooth muscle is composed of involuntary muscles found within the walls of organs and structures such as the esophagus, stomach, intestines, and blood vessels. those muscles push materials like food or blood through organs. unlike skeletal muscle, smooth muscle can never be under your control.
