Consider the following reaction.
co2(g) + hz(9) —co(g) + h2o(1)
what is being oxidized?
carbon
carbon dioxide
oxygen
hydrogen
o

Hydrogen

Explanation:

Oxidation and reduction are two types of chemical reactions known as redox reactions. (Red - reduction; ox - oxidation).

A substance is oxidized when it receives an oxygen atom from an oxidizing agent. The substance that receives oxygen is known as a reducing agent.

A substance  is reduced when it donates an oxygen atom to another atom. Thus, the substance is known as an oxidizing agent - it supplies oxygen.

In the reaction:

CO2(g) + Hz(9) —CO(g) + H2O(1)

CO₂ loses oxygen to become CO and H₂ gains oxygen to become H₂O. Thus, CO₂ is an oxidizing agent and H₂ is a reducing agent.

because natural gas is colorless, odorless, and tasteless, distributors add mercaptan (a chemical that smells like sulfur) to give natural gas a distinct unpleasant odor (it smells like rotten eggs). they locate the types of rock that are likely to contain natural gas deposits.
