### Multiple Choice Question 6**What is being oxidized and reduced in this reaction?**Reaction:\[ \text{Fe}_{(s)} + \text{CuSO}_4{(aq)} \rightarrow \text{FeSO}_4{(aq)} + \text{Cu}_{(s)} \]Options:A. Fe is oxidized and Cu is reduced.B. Cu is oxidized and Fe is reduced.C. The oxidation states of both Fe and Cu do not change.D. Oxygen is oxidized and sulfur is reduced.### Explanation:To determine what is being oxidized and what is being reduced in the reaction, identify the changes in the oxidation states of the elements involved:1. **Oxidation**: Refers to the loss of electrons.2. **Reduction**: Refers to the gain of electrons.In the given reaction:- Fe (iron) starts with an oxidation state of 0 (elemental form) and ends with an oxidation state of +2 (in FeSO₄).- Cu (copper) starts with an oxidation state of +2 (in CuSO₄) and ends with an oxidation state of 0 (elemental form).Thus, Fe loses electrons (is oxidized) and Cu gains electrons (is reduced).**Correct Answer:**A. Fe is oxidized and Cu is reduced.### Additional Information:There is a navigation element at the bottom, showing that this is the 6th question out of a total of 14, with 4 questions answered so far. There are options to save changes and continue to the next question.
