A)  The oxidation state of Oxygen is reduced, from 0 to -1.  So Ammonia is reducing agent.  Nitrogen and hhydrogen are oxidized to a state of +2 and +1 respectively.

b)  Flourine is reduced to floride ion.. oxidation state of -1.
     Water is the reducing agent..
    
c)  Iron is reduced from an oxidation state of +3 to  0.. Carbon is oxidized from +2 state to +4.  so carbon monozide is reducing agent.

d)  Oxygen is reduced from a state of 0 to -2... hydrogen is oxidized.  so hydrogen is the reducing agent.
