In a redox reaction, the substance that accepts electrons is said to be a. reduced. c. electrified. b. oxidized. d. clarified.

Correct answer is option b(reduced)

Explanation:

A reaction in which transfer of electron takes place from one substance to other is known as redox reaction. In this type of reaction one substance loses electrons and other substance accept these electrons.

During transfer of electron Substance which accept the electrons undergoes a reduction and the substance which accept the electron undergoes oxidation.

Therefore, the substance which lost the electrons start behaving as a oxidizing agent and the substance which accept the electrons behave as an reducing agent since after accepting electrons it oxidizes another chemical species.

Reduced and oxidising agent
