The substance that accepts electrons from another substance is the?
In a redox reaction, the substance that accepts electrons is said to be the substance reduced. This substance is also likely the oxidizing agent, since oxidation is the loss of electrons.
Which substance is the oxidizing agent in this reaction FeO plus CO and Fe plus CO2?
The ferrous oxide is the oxdant.
Is N2 an oxidizing agent?
Nitrogen is not an oxidizing agent.
Is it necessary that an oxidising agent should contain oxygen?
No. An oxidizing agent only needs to be able to increase the oxidation state of an element in another substance, which is a matter of electron transfer rather than oxygen. The halogens, especially fluorine, are strong oxidizing agents that do not contain oxygen.
What is the oxidizing agent in butane combustion?
The oxidizing agent is oxygen.
What is the relationship between oxidising agent and the reduced substance?
Its the substance reduced which is termed to be an oxidizing agent. When a substance is reduced, it loses electrons that are taken up by another substance thereby oxidizing another substance (oxidising agent).
The substance that accepts electrons from another substance is the?
In a redox reaction, the substance that accepts electrons is said to be the substance reduced. This substance is also likely the oxidizing agent, since oxidation is the loss of electrons.
What is the effect of replacing iodine with other oxidizing agents?
The effect of replacing iodine with other oxidizing agents is that the substance being stained will not be stained. Iodine is the only oxidizing agent to dye the material.
Is oxidizing a chemical or physical property?
It is a chemical because it is producing a new substance.
Strengths of oxidizing and reducing agents?
One way to quantify whether a substance is a strong oxidizing agent or a strongreducing agent is to use the oxidation-reduction potential or redox potential. Strong oxidizing agents have low electron-transfer potential.
What will result in a chemical change?
Anything that will create a new substance or change the chemical makeup of the substance. Burning, cooking, oxidizing, and other chemical reactions are examples.
How do you identify the reducing agent in a reaction of magnesium with oxygen?
The oxidizing agent (reducing substance) is what does gain electrons, and it means more electronegative substance, and in this case, oxygen.
What does oxidising mean in science?
The oxidizing hazard symbol means the substance has the ability to react with oxygen, usually dangerously.
Which substance is the oxidizing agent in this reaction FeO plus CO and Fe plus CO2?
The ferrous oxide is the oxdant.
What does oxidising hazard symbol mean?
The oxidizing hazard symbol means the substance has the ability to react with oxygen, usually dangerously.
Why a substance that oxidised is called a reducing agent and why a substance that is reduced is called an oxidising agent?
It is because when a substance is oxidized, it loses electrons which are taken up by other so that is gets reduced.This is why it is called reducing agent. Similarly, the substance reduced is called oxidizing agent.
What is an oxidizing agent?
A substance that oxidizes another substance Any chemical substance that has a tendency to accept electrons and thereby undergoing reduction themselves is known as an oxidising agent. An oxidizer is a compound that supplies its own oxygen and heat when in contact with organic compounds. These chemicals that can react vigorously and explode. Oxidizers are compounds which are capable of reacting with and oxidizing (i.e., giving off oxygen) other materials. A well known example of oxidation is the process we know as corrosion, where the metal reacts with air to form the metal oxides referred to as "rust". The primary hazard associated with this class of compounds lies in their ability to act as an oxygen source, and thus to readily stimulate the combustion of organic materials. As you may recall, it takes three components for a fire to happen - a fuel source (usually an organic compound, such as paper), an ignition source (such as a flame, a spark, friction, etc.) and an oxygen source (in this case - a cylinder of OXYGEN, a strong oxidizer). Oxidizers may be grouped into 4 classes based on their ability to affect the burning rate of combustible materials or undergo self-sustained decomposition. This classification system was established by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA 43A, 1980) as a means to provide information on safe storage of oxidizing materials. Class 1: An oxidizing material whose primary hazard is that it may increase the burning rate of combustible material with which it comes in contact Class 2: An oxidizing material that will moderately increase the burning rate of which may cause spontaneous ignitionof combustible material with which it ocmes in contact. Class 3: An oxidizing material that will cause a severe increase in the burning rate of combustible material with which it comes in contact or which will undergo vigorous self-substained decomposition when catalyzed or exposed to heat. Class 4: An oxidizing material that can undergo an explosive reaction when catalyzed or exposed to heat, shock or friction.
