Question
Chapter 18, Problem 44A
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation: The given sentence needs to be completed.
Concept Introduction: By transfer of electrons,
Expert Solution & Answer
Answer to Problem 44A
To function as a good reducing agent, a species must lose electrons easily.
Explanation of Solution
Reduction of another species is caused due to reducing agent because it donates electrons to species undergoing reduction. A reducing agent release electrons to another species. By donating electrons to another reactant, the reducing agent is oxidized.
Conclusion
Reducing agent releases electrons as they are electron donor.
