Identify the oxidizing agent and the reducing agent in the following equations?!!?

(a) Sn(s) + 2 H+(aq) → Sn2+(aq) + H2(g)

(b) 2 H+(aq) + H2O2(aq) + 2 Fe2+(aq) → 2 Fe3+(aq) + 2 H2O(l)

(c) 8 H+(aq) + Cr2O72−(aq) + 3SO32−(aq) → 2 Cr3+(aq) + 3 SO42−(aq) + 4 H2O(l)

(d) 8 H+(aq) + 6 Cl−(aq) + Sn(s) + 4 NO3−(aq) → SnCl62−(aq) + 4 NO2(g) + 4 H2O(l)

(e) 8 NH3(g) + 6 NO2(g) → 7 N2(g) + 12 H2O(l)
