• Good reducing agents include the active metals, such as sodium, magnesium, aluminum, and zinc, which have relatively small ionization energies and low electro-negativities. Metal hydrides, such as NaH, CaH2, and LiAlH4 , which formally contain the H- ion, are also good reducing agents.

• In general, oxidizing chemical materials could cause these effects: Oxidizing chemicals can either be poisonous and corrosive. Speed up the inducing of fire. These materials caused non-flammable materials can easily got into fire rapidly. These materials could cause a flammable material got into fire spontaneously with no clear source of flaming material around. More items...

• Common oxidizing agents are oxygen, hydrogen peroxide and the halogens. lithium at the top of the list has the most negative number, indicating that it is the strongest reducing agent. The strongest oxidizing agent is fluorine with the largest positive number for standard electrode potential.

Ions, Atoms, and molecules tend to have a large affinity for electrons are said to be good oxidizing agents. The elemental fluorine is an example of the strongest agent. F2 is also a good oxidizing agent such that the metals, asbestos, quartz, and even water in its presence tend to bursts out to flame.
