Ƒ An atom that gains one or more electronswill have a NEGATIVE charge. ƒ An atom that loses one or more electrons will have a POSTIVE charge. ƒ An atom that gains or losesone or more electrons is called an ION. ƒ A positive ion is called a CATION and a negative ion is called an ANION.

From this information above you can see its negative so it means it gets reduced
hope it helped

In this reaction the lead atoms gain anelectron (reduction) while the oxygen loses electrons (oxidation). Magnesium loses electrons and is therefore said to be "oxidized", whereas the chlorines gain electrons and are said to be reduced
and as you can see oxidation only happens when oxygen is reduced

T or f sound waves can travel across outer space?

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Sound does not travel at all in space. The vacuum of outer space has essentially zero air. Because sound is just vibrating air, space has no air to vibrate and therefore no sound. ... Radio is a form of electromagnetic radiation just like light and can therefore travel through the vacuum of space just fine.

How do i explain this?

Oxygen debt is a physiological phenomenon in which a person consume oxygen at fater rate that it replaced by new oxygen molecules.

As shown in the graph, oxygen debt occurs just after the end of exercise because oxygen is consumed at faster rate during exercise that leads to  increased respiration and body attempts to replace the used oxygen.

To overcome the problem of oxygen debt, a person should take rest that allows the body to replenish its oxygen supply.
