Consider the following redox equation: SO₂ + NO₂ $\rightarrow$ SO₃ + NO, choose an appropriate chemical formula from the list that identifies the substance that loses electrons.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The substance that loses electrons in a redox reaction is the one that is oxidized. The notation seems to be corrupted, but based on the progression from SO₂ to SO₃, it suggests an increase in oxidation state, indicating reduction. Therefore, the other reactant, presumably represented as A) SO₂, would be the one losing electrons (oxidized).
