For the following equation determine the oxidation number for each atom in the equation and identify whether the reaction is a redox reaction or not. If the reaction is redox, identify what is oxidized, what is reduced, the oxidizing agent, and the reducing agent. If it is not a redox reaction, put NA those answer blocks.   2Na + 2H2O–> 2NaOH + H2   Reactants Oxidation Numbers:   Na      [ann1]   H        [ann2]   O         [ann3]   Product Oxidation Numbers   Na      [ann4]   H         [ann5]   O         [ann6]   Is this a redox reaction?       [ann7]   If it is, what is element is oxidized?  [ann8]   What element is reduced?     [ann9]   What element is the oxidizing agent?        [ann10]   What is the reducing agent?       [ann11]
