Ans. a. Cd(s)
Explanation: A reducing agent or reducer is an element or compound that lose or donate electrons to other element or compound present in the reaction. A reducing agent is oxidized because it loses electrons in the redox reaction. In Cd2+, 2+ is the highest oxidation state of cadmium. Since Cd2+ is already is in a oxidation state of 2+, it can be further oxidized. So the answer is the metal, Cd.
