Measured values are verified and go under a series of experiments before being accepted as the norm. Accepted values are unanimously accepted values, seen as the norm by a qualified group of individuals (scientists or the people of the intellectual sphere).
I’m not good at explaining things so i think this is right?? i’m just learning this too haha
Answer:
The reducing agent donates electron to the oxidizing agent and gets oxidized itself
Explanation:
In an oxidation-reduction reaction, also known as REDOX reaction, one of the reactants is called OXIDIZING AGENT while the other is called REDUCING AGENT. The reducing agent is called so because it reduces another substance in the reaction.
It reduces another atom/ion by donating electrons to that atom, hence, getting oxidized itself in the process. For example, in the following reaction:
H2 + F2 → 2HF
Fluorine is getting oxidized from -2 to 0 by donating electrons to H and reducing it from +2 to 0.
