Answer:-
Oxygen gains electrons and is reduced.
Explanation:-
For this reaction the balanced chemical equation is
4Fe + 3O2 --> 2Fe2O3
When Oxygen is present as oxygen gas, the oxidation number of O is Zero since it is the only element present in Oxygen gas.
Similarly Iron is present in Fe with oxidation number Zero.
In the case of Fe2O3, Oxygen has the oxidation number -2 while Iron has +3.
So the oxidation number of Oxygen goes from Zero to -2.
Since the oxidation number decreases Oxygen is reduced.
Since reduction involves gain of electrons, Oxygen gains electrons.

Denser salt water makes the eggs to float in the water.
<u>Explanation:
</u>
Egg will always sink in water, as egg is denser than water.
But we can make it to float by means of adding excess salt to the water. Adding more salt to water makes it as denser than egg. Denser water makes less dense egg to float in water.
So, making the water as denser one leads to the floating of egg in the water.
The answer would be B fossil fuel is used it cars so increasing human population therefore would increase the burning of fossil fuels
