Answer:

See below ~

Step-by-step explanation:

Question 1

  • Fe₂O₃ undergoes reduction to form 2Fe
  • 3CO undergoes oxidation to form 3CO₂
  • This is an oxidation-reduction reaction, or a redox reaction

Question 2

  • Here O₂ is added to Fe to form Fe₂O₃
  • Hence, the addition of oxygen means it is oxidation
