Answer:

Oxygen is a A) oxidizing agent.

Explanation:

An element that is reduced is an oxidizing agent, because the element gains electrons. Oxygen is very electronegative and wants electrons to complete its valence shell. When electrons are gained, the oxygen is reduced. The oxygen is thus an oxidizing agent.
