<p>hey i am having problems with determing oxidizing and reducing agents. can some1 help me? :) like maybe give an example and show me show to work it out? are every oxidizing and reducing agents from the reactants side? if not can you give an example of one its not. thanks :)</p>
<p>oxidizing agents are reduced, so they do the oxidizing</p>
<p>reducing agents are oxidized, so they do the reducing</p>
<p>I don’t have an example off the top of my head, but you get the jist of it.</p>
<p>and no, there isn’t a specific side products or reactants for red/ox agents, they are just based upon what they do and what happens to them if that makes sense.</p>
