Zinc would be considered the strongest reducing agent.

<h3>Reducing agent</h3>

A reducing agent is a chemical species that "donates" one electron to another chemical species in chemistry (called the oxidizing agent, oxidant, oxidizer, or electron acceptor). Earth metals, formic acid, oxalic acid, and sulfite compounds are a few examples of common reducing agents.

Reducers have excess electrons (i.e., they are already reduced) in their pre-reaction states, whereas oxidizers do not. Usually, a reducing agent is in one of the lowest oxidation states it can be in. The oxidation state of the oxidizer drops while the oxidizer's oxidation state, which measures the amount of electron loss, increases. The agent in a redox process whose oxidation state rises, which "loses/donates electrons," which "oxidizes," and which "reduces" is known as the reducer or reducing agent.

The chemical reaction would be written as:

2HgO = 2Hg + O2

We use this reaction and the amount of the reactant to calculate for the moles of oxygen produced. THen, we use avogadro's number to convert it to molecules. We do as follows:

12.5 g HgO (1 mol / 216.59 g) (1 mol O2 / 2 mol HgO) ( 6.022x10^23 molecules O2 / 1 mol O2 ) = 1.74x10^22 molecules O2 produced
