What is Redox reaction? What is oxidized, reduced, oxidizing, and reducing agent?

Explained below.

Explanation:

- Redox reaction is defined as any type of chemical reaction whereby the oxidation number of a participating chemical atoms/elements undergo changes.

- The atom that is oxidized is the one that has an increase in it's oxidation number.

- The atom that is reduced is the one that has a decrease in its oxidation number.

- The reducing agent is defined as the atom that is oxidized.

- The oxidizing agent is defined as the atom that is reduced.

8 carbon atoms forming single bonds with 18 hydrogen atoms; a triple bond exists between the third and fourth carbon atom from the right

explanation:

answer: option (4) is the correct answer.

explanation:

areas which are at low altitudes and near the equator tend to receive direct sunlight from the sun. hence, heat energy or radiations from the sun make these areas warmer and they have warmest water.

whereas areas which are at high altitudes and away from the equator do no receive direct sunlight. hence, no direct contact from the sun makes these regions colder and thus, they have colder water.

thus, we can conclude that the statement areas at low latitudes near the equator have the warmest water because they receive the most direct sunlight best explains the relationship between an area's geography and the temperature of its surface water.
