A molecule which donates electron(s) to an other, is called a reductor or
reducing atom / molecule
Example:
2Fe --> 2Fe2+ + 4 e- reductor Fe
4 e- + O2 --> 2O2- oxidator O2
-------------------------------------------- +
2Fe + O2 --> 2FeO redox reaction, the corrosion of Iron by Oxygen (forming rust)

yes it is oxidized substrate reduces itself and oxidize others
Gold is a relatively inert metal and does not typically act as an electron donor or acceptor in chemical reactions. Its electron configuration makes it stable and less likely to participate in redox reactions.
Tin can act as both an electron donor and an electron acceptor, depending on the chemical reaction it is involved in. In some reactions, tin can donate electrons to other elements, while in others, it can accept electrons.
Helium is not an electron donor or acceptor as it has a full outer electron shell (2 electrons). It is classified as a noble gas and is chemically inert, meaning it does not readily form chemical bonds.

Acid is a proton donor. It donates a proton (H+) to another molecule to form a conjugate base. It is not an electron pair donor, which is characteristic of bases.
The donor is the one who loses the electron. Donor is the elctron carrier.
the lone pair on electron like nh3 make molecule good donor.

Loss of electrons is oxidation.
No, an acid is not an electron donor. An acid donates a proton (H+) in a chemical reaction. It is a proton donor, not an electron donor.

An electron donor is a substance that donates electrons to another substance during a chemical reaction, typically becoming oxidized in the process. In biological systems, molecules like NADH or FADH2 are electron donors that transfer electrons to the electron transport chain.
Any substance that can donate electron is known as electron donor. Also known as reducing agent.
