Identify the reducing agent in the following reaction : Fe_(2)O_(3)+3COrarr2Fe+3CO_(2)

Answer»

Solution :Oxidising agent `=Fe_(2)O_(3)`
REDUCING agent =CO
`Fe_(2)O_(3)` is REDUCE to Fe (loss of oxygen)
Co is oxidised ............... Oxygen
O.A. `F_(2)` FLUORINE is reduced.
O.A=CUO, R.A`=H_(2)`
CuO is reduced, `H_(2)` is oxidised
O.A `=H_(2)`O, R.A.=Fe
Fe is oxidised, `H_(2)O` is reduced
