ZnO(s) + CO(g) → Zn(s) + CO\(_2\)(g)
In the reaction above, Zinc has been
- decomposed
- displaced
- oxidized
-
reduced
The correct answer is: D
Explanation
A substance is reduced when it gains electrons or loses oxygen.i,e it undergoes reduction while a substance is oxidized when it loses electrons, gains oxygen, or has hydrogen removed. Therefore, Zn is reduced because it lost oxygen.
