In the reaction c zh4 + h2 - e) +4 cho the carbon atoms are a) oxidized b) reduced c) cannot be determined

Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Reduction is defined as the process in which there occurs gain of hydrogen. Whereas oxidation is defined as the process in which there occurs loss of hydrogen.

As the given reaction is as follows.

Since, hydrogen is being added in this chemical reaction. It means that reduction is taking place and carbon atom is reduced.

Thus, we can conclude that in the given reaction carbon atoms are reduced.

they are made of gases.

they have a spherical shape.

they make energy through fusion.

the right answer is c i just did the question.
