Detailed Solution

Metals are generally reducing agents.
Generally, metals tend to donate their electrons and act as reducing agents. They do so by getting oxidized themselves and resulting in a reduction in the particular reaction. Because of their propensity to transfer electrons and undergo oxidation, metals function as reducing agents. For example, active metals with low electro-negativities and relatively low ionization energies, such as sodium, magnesium, aluminium, and zinc, are good reducing agents.
