The element that gains electrons, becomes reduced.

While the one which loses electrons, becomes oxidized.

In this equation,

CH₃OH + Cr₂O₇²⁻---- --> CH₂O + Cr³⁺.

By balancing the equation, we will get:

3CH₃OH + Cr₂O₇²⁻ + 8H⁺ --> 3CH₂O + 2Cr³⁺ + 7H₂O

Here the oxidation state of Cr changes from +6 to +3 that is it is being reduced thus serving as a oxidizing agent while other element retain their charges.

Here Cr₂O₇²⁻ is reduced while CH₃OH is oxidized.

So Cr₂O₇²⁻ serves as a oxidizing agent, while CH₃OH serves as reducing agent .
