Which of the following oxides can act as a reducing agent?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Reducing agents are those which have a tendency to get oxidized by losing electrons. Metals have 1, 2 or 3 valence electrons and hence, they have the tendency to lose these electrons to attain the stable noble gas configuration. Thus, metals loose electrons to form cations.
