Indicate whether each of the following statements is true or false:

(a) If something is oxidized, it is formally losing electrons.

(b) For the reaction \(\mathrm{Fe}^{3+}(a q)+\mathrm{Co}^{2+}(a q) \longrightarrow \mathrm{Fe}^{2+}(a q)+ \mathrm{Co}^{3+}(a q), \mathrm{Fe}^{3+}(a q)\) is the reducing agent and \(\mathrm{Co}^{2+}(a q)\) is the oxidizing agent.

(c) If there are no changes in the oxidation state of the reactants or products of a particular reaction, that reaction is not a redox reaction.
