A. Oxidizing agents accept electrons.
B. Reducing agents may accept H+ ions.
C. If a molecule accepts electrons, it has been reduced.
D. Redox reactions may involve the transfer of hydrogen ions (H+).

Answer:A, C, D, E, F

Explanation:

A. True: Oxidizing agents are electron acceptors. They accept electrons and the get reduced. This means their oxidation number reduces

B. False: Reducing agents do not accept H+ ions. Reducing agents remove oxygen from another substance or give hydrogen to it.

C. True: oxidizing agents oxidizes other molecules but they accept electrons and get reduced themselves. If a molecule accepts electrons it has been reduced.

D True: Redox reactions MAY and may not involve the transfer of hydrogen ions depending on the reactants (H+). But redox in terms of acid and base means the donating and receiving of protons(H+)

E. True: A molecule that has gained H atoms is said to be reduced. Oxidizing agents are always the proton acceptor.

F. True: Oxidizing agents May and may not accept H+. In terms of acid and base oxidizing agents accept protons(H+)

Statements that can be considered as a true statement as regards redox reactions are;

A. Oxidizing agents accept electrons.

B. Reducing agents may accept H+ ions.

D. Redox reactions may involve the transfer of hydrogen ions (H+).

E. A molecule that has gained H atoms is said to be reduced.

F. Oxidizing agents may accept H+ ions.

  • An oxidation-reduction reaction is can be regarded as a chemical reaction whereby the  oxidation number of a molecule as well as an atom, or ion undergo  changes through the gaining or losing an electron.

  • However, redox reaction can as well be explained in term of  transfer of hydrogen ions (H+).

  • The Oxidizing agents accept electrons while the reducing agent looses the electron, any molecule that gain Hydrogen atom can be considered to be reduced.

  • Example of this is in  formation of hydrogen fluoride (HF)

Therefore, option A,C,D,F are correct.
