In the following equation, which element has been oxidized? 2ai+2fe^3^+ + 3o^2^- 2fe + 2al^3^+ + 3o^2^- a. al b. fe c. o

The  element  that has  been  oxidized   is Al  (  Answer  A)

Explanation

 if  the oxidation number of an element is greater in the product side than the reactant  side  then the element   has lost  the electrons . This mean  that  the element  has been oxidized.

Al  is  oxidized  because  it move  from  oxidation  state  Zero(0)  in reactant side  to  oxidation state 3⁺  in product  side.

This  implies  that  Al  loses  3  electrons.

the answer is option a.

i believe the answer is 5,000
