consider the oxidation states of all elements
reactants :
Zn --> 0
Mn ---> +4
O ---> -2
N ---> -3
H ---> +1
products :
Zn ---> +2
Mn ----> +3
O ----> -2
N ----> -3
H ----> +1
now
reduction is the decrease in the oxidation number
here
Mn goes from +4 to +3
so
manganese is the element that is being reduced

PARTIL Creating and Testing Voltaic Cells Introduction and Background for the Voltaic Cells A galvanic cell (sometimes more appropriately called a voltaic cell) consists of two half-cells joined by a salt bridge that allow ions to pass between the two sides in order to maintain electroneutrality. Each half-cell contains the Components of...
