### 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.

27 One way in which the useful metal copper is produced is by dissolving the mineral azurite, which contains copper(11) carbonate, in concentrated sulfuric acid. The sulfuric acid reacts with the copper(II) carbonate to produce a blue solution of copper (11) sulfate. Scrap iron is then added to this solution, and pure coppe metal precipitates out because of the following chemical reaction: Fe(s) + CuSO₂(aq) -Cu(s) + FeSO (aq) Suppose an industrial quality-control chemist analyzes a sample from a copper processing plant in the following way. He adds powdered iron to a 350 ml copper(II) sulfate sample from the plant until no more copper will precipitate. He then washes, dries, and weighs the precipitate, and finds that it has a mass 122. mg. Calculate the original concentration of copper(11) sulfate in the sample. Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits. 02 0.9 15
Copper commonly occurs as the sulfide mineral CuS. The first step in extracting copper from CuS is to dissolve the mineral in nitric acid, which oxidizes the sulfide to sulfate and reduces nitric acid to NO.
