Answer #1

Fe2O3 + 2Al --> Al2O3 + 2Fe

in Fe2O3 oxidation state of Fe is +3 in Fe oxidation state is 0

so Fe converted from +3 to 0 oxidation state it get reduces

in AL oxidation state is 0, Al2O3 oxidation state is +3

so Al converted 0 to +3 si it get oxidised

remember on epoint that always oxidising agent will get reduc and

reducing agent will get oxidise

so answer will be

oxidising agent is Fe

reducing agent is Al
