I don’t know what to answer
-Pure magnesium is commonly made by separating it from seawater. This process is known as electrolysis. The liquid magnesium formed is cooled into convenient blocks of metal known as ingots. The chlorine gas is recycled to form hydrochloric acid for the production of more magnesium chloride.

Answer:
The incorrect statement is: SO₂ gains electrons
Explanation:
A chemical reaction that involves the simultaneous transfer of electrons between two chemical species, is known as the redox reaction.
Given chemical reaction: 2SO₂(g) + O₂(g) → 2SO₃(g)
In this redox reaction, S is present in +4 oxidation state in SO₂ and +6 oxidation state SO₃. Whereas, O is present in 0 oxidation state in O₂ and -2 oxidation state in SO₃.
<u>Therefore, SO₂ loses electrons and thus gets oxidized. Whereas, O₂ gains electrons and thus gets reduced. </u>
<u>In this reaction, SO₂ is the reducing agent and O₂ is the oxidizing agent.</u>
