<u>Answer: </u>The correct answer is Option b.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Oxidizing agent is defined as the chemical reagent which helps the other chemical compound to get oxidized and itself gets reduced. The oxidation state for these species gets reduced because they are undergoing reduction reaction.
For the given chemical equation:
Oxidation state of Chromium is getting reduced from +6 to +3 and oxidation state of chlorine getting increased from -1 to 0.
Hence, acts like and oxidizing agent because it is itself getting reduced to
Therefore, the correct answer is Option b.

Answer:
Explanation:
Density can be found by dividing the mass by the volume.
The mass of the water is 50.0 grams.
The volume of the water is 50.0 milliliters.
Substitute the values into the formula.
Divide.
The density of the water is 1.0 grams per milliliter. Also, remember that the density of pure water is always 1.0 g/mL or g/cm³
