The correct answer is C) I and III.Explanation:I. Oxidizing agent is an agent that causes another species to be oxidized, but itself is reduced.This statement is correct. An oxidizing agent is a substance that gains electrons and is reduced in a chemical reaction, causing another species to be oxidized.II. During the reduction molecules lose oxygen atom.This statement is incorrect. During the reduction process, molecules gain electrons and typically gain hydrogen atoms, not lose oxygen atoms.III. In a galvanic cell spontaneous chemical reaction generates electrical energy.This statement is correct. In a galvanic cell, a spontaneous chemical reaction occurs, and this reaction generates electrical energy that can be harnessed to do work.Therefore, the correct statements are I and III.
