### Oxidation-Reduction Reaction IdentificationIn this exercise, you will identify the oxidizing agent and the reducing agent in the following chemical reaction:\[ 2 \text{SO}_2 \text{(g)} + \text{O}_2 \text{(g)} \rightarrow 2 \text{SO}_3 \text{(g)} \]Use the dropdown menus to select the appropriate answers:#### Identify the Elements and Compounds:1. **Element that is Oxidized:** - [Select from Dropdown] 2. **Element that is Reduced:** - [Select from Dropdown] 3. **Compound that is the Oxidizing Agent:** - [Select from Dropdown] 4. **Compound that is the Reducing Agent:** - [Select from Dropdown]### ExplanationIn redox reactions, one element gets oxidized (loses electrons) and another gets reduced (gains electrons). The compound containing the element that gets oxidized is the reducing agent, and the compound containing the element that gets reduced is the oxidizing agent.In this reaction:- Sulfur (S) in \(\text{SO}_2\) is oxidized to \(\text{SO}_3\).- Oxygen (O) in \(\text{O}_2\) is reduced as it gains electrons to form \(\text{SO}_3\).Using this understanding, select the appropriate elements and compounds for the dropdown menus.### Dropdown Options- **Element that is Oxidized:** Sulfur (S)- **Element that is Reduced:** Oxygen (O)- **Compound that is the Oxidizing Agent:** \(\text{O}_2\)- **Compound that is the Reducing Agent:** \(\text{SO}_2\) ### Educational Notes- **Oxidizing Agent:** The substance that accepts electrons and gets reduced.- **Reducing Agent:** The substance that donates electrons and gets oxidized.Understanding redox reactions is critical as they play a vital role in various biological and industrial processes. This exercise helps clarify the concept of oxidation states and the role of different agents in redox reactions.

The oxidation is the loss of electrons. So in oxidation, the oxidation number of the element…
