Which is an oxidizing agent in following reaction?
$\mathrm{Fe}_{(s)}+\mathrm{Cu}_{\mathrm{aq}}^{2+} \rightarrow \underset{\text { aq }}{\mathrm{Fe}_{(s)}^{2+}} +\mathrm{Cu(S)}$
$\mathrm{Fe}_{\mathrm{aq}}^{2+}$
$\mathrm{Cu}_{\mathrm{aq}}^{2+}$
$\mathrm{Fe}_{(\mathrm{s})}$
$\mathrm{Cu}_{(\mathrm{s})}$
Solution
$\mathrm{Cu}^{+2} \rightarrow \mathrm{Cu}$
$\mathrm{Cu}^{+2}$ itself get reduced and act as O.A.
