Concept explainers
Interpretation:
The oxidizing and reducing agents in the photosynthesis reaction are to be identified.
Concept Introduction:
Oxidation is the addition of an electronegative element or the removal of an electropositive element in a
Reduction is the addition of an electropositive element or the removal of an electronegative element in a chemical reaction.
A chemical reaction in which both oxidation and reduction takes place simultaneously is called a
An oxidizing agent is a substance that oxidizes the other substance and gets reduced in a chemical reaction.
A reducing agent is a substance that reduces the other substance and gets oxidized in a chemical reaction.
