What reading level is Introduction to General Chemistry book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Reduction and Reducing Agents. — When hydrogen is oxidized by hot copper oxide, thus: CuO+Hi->Cu+H,0, the copper oxide is said to be reduced to metallic copper. In consequence we call hydrogen a reducing agent. Any substance, as, -for example, acetylene or methane, which can reduce copper oxide is also called a reducing agent. In any reaction, if one substance is oxidized the oxidizing agent is by necessity reduced; oxidation and reduction always go on together. All substances which arc acted u...pon by o.xidizing agents are, of course, redu- cing agents.
196 Introduction to General Chemistry 328. Carbon as a Reducing Agent. — Since charcoal, which is nearly pure carbon, burns readily, it is capable of taking up oxygen from oxidizing agents and is therefore a good reducing agent. A mixture of powdered copper oxide and charcoal reacts vigorously, if strongly heated, giving copper and carbon dioxide: 2CuO+C->2Cu+CO..
In this reaction the copper oxide is the oxidizing agent and the charcoal (carbon) the reducing agent.
