The oxidation number of reactant Fe is 0 while the  oxidation number of iron in the product is +3

What s a redox reaction?

The term redox reaction implies a reaction in which there is an increase in the oxidation number of a specie and the decrease in the oxidation number of another specie.

Now we have the answers as follows;

1) The oxidation number of reactant Fe is 0

2) The oxidation number of reactant oxygen is 0

3) The oxidation number of iron in the product is +3

4) The oxidation number of oxygen in the product is -2

5). Iron is oxidized in the reaction

6) Oxygen is reduced in the reaction

7) The oxidizing agent in this case is the oxygen atom
