    An oxidizing accepts an electron and becomes reduced while a reducing agent loses an electron and become oxidized.

    Chemical equation:

    1) 2 N₂H₄ + N₂O₄ → 3 N₂ + 4 H₂O

    2) Hydrazine (N₂H₄) is being oxidized

    Dinitrogen tetroxide N₂O₄ is being reduced

    3) The reducing agent is Hydrazine (N₂H₄) and the oxidizing agent is dinitrogen tetroxide (N₂O₄)
