Want this question answered?
It is safer to claim it as neither - not least because the reaction would/does not work. Far safer to say that the sulphur is oxidised (which, you could argue, makes it a reducing agent).
Neutralization reaction.2HCl + Ca(OH)2 ==> CaCl2 + 2H2OThis is NOT an oxidation-reduction reaction.
S in (SO4)-2 has a charge of +6, in SO2 S has a charge of +4. To go from +6 to +4 you must gain two electrons. The (SO4)-2 is reduced (reduction is gaining electrons). Therefore it reduces the 2br-, so (SO4)-2 is the reducing agent
Both oxidation and reduction
oxidation
The reduction potential of the reaction Cr(3+)-------Cr(2+) is -0,41 V; the potential of hydrogen is zero so acids can be reduced with Cr(2+).
Absallutly!
It is neither oxidation nor reduction it is simply a double displacement reaction.
-1.68 V
This is an oxidation-reduction reaction.
Sound reduction plus better insulation
Magnesium is the oxidising agent.
