What is the oxidizing agent in the following reaction? \[ \mathrm{Ni}(s)+2 \mathrm{AgClO}_{4(a q)} \rightarrow \mathrm{Ni}\left(\mathrm{ClO}_{4}\right)_{2(a q)}+2 \mathrm{Ag}_{(s)} \] \( \mathrm{AgClO}_{4} \) \( \mathrm{Ni}\left(\mathrm{ClO}_{4}\right)_{2} \) This is not an oxidation-reduction reaction. \( \mathrm{Ni} \) \( \mathrm{Ag} \)
