Answer: D
Explanation:
A reducing agent is a species that reduces other compounds, and is thereby oxidized. The whole compound becomes the reducing agent. In other words, of a compound is oxidized, then they are the reducing agent. On the other hand, if the compound is reduced, it is an ozidizing agent.
Since we have established that a reducing agent is the compound being oxidized, we know that A is not our answer. An oxidized compound is losing electrons. Choice A states exactly this.
For B, this is true as we have established this already.
C is also correct. Since a reducing agent loses electrons, it becomes more positive. This makes the oxidation number increase.
D would be our correct answer. It is actually a good oxidizing agent is a metal in a high oxidation state, such as Mn⁷⁺.

Answer:
Molarity NaOH = 0.0263M
Explanation:
Molarity Acid x Volume Acid = Molarity Base x Volume Base
12.5ml x 0.60M = 285ml x M(base)
M(base) = 12.5ml x 0.60M / 285ml = 0.0263M
False. Lead is not a compound, it is an element.
