(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Whether indicated equation represents oxidation or not has to be determined.

  MgMg2+

Concept Introduction:

A reduction half reaction is accompanied by addition of electrons while a oxidation half reaction is accompanied by loss of electrons. A general reduction process that occurs in reduction half-cell is represented as follows:

  Mn++eMn

A general oxidation process that occurs in oxidation half-cell is represented as follows:

  MMn++e

Here

n represents number of electrons gained or lost.
