As we learnt

 

Reducing Agent -

 

A substance that act as a donor of electron is called reducing agent. Reducing agent itself gets oxidised.

- wherein

e.g.2Na(s)+ O_{2}(g)\rightarrow (Na_{2}^{+}) O^{2-}(s)
Na is reducing agent

 

 Since Al donates electrons to other substances,it is the reducing agent in the reaction.
