Question
Chapter 5, Problem 5.82E
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The statement that best describes the given
Concept Introduction:
Redox reactions are the reactions in which one of the reactants gets oxidized and the other gets reduced simultaneously. The reactant that oxidizes the other substance is known as oxidizing agent. The oxidizing agent gets reduced in the reaction. The reactant that reduces the other substance is known as reducing agent. The reducing agent gets oxidized in the reaction. An increase in oxidation number of a substance indicates that the substance got oxidized, whereas, a decrease in the oxidation number of a substance indicates that the substance got reduced.
