(a)
Interpretation:
The atom that oxidized, reduced, oxidizing agent and reducing agent should be determined.
Concept Introduction:
The
(b)
Interpretation:
The atom that oxidized, reduced, oxidizing agent and reducing agent should be determined.
Concept Introduction:
The oxidation-reduction reaction is also known as a redox reaction. In this reaction, one reactant is oxidized and other is reduced. The balancing of oxidation-reduction reaction can be done by simple method by comparing the number of each atoms on both sides of the reaction arrow without addition of hydrogen ion, water molecule and electrons from outside.
(c)
Interpretation:
The atom that oxidized, reduced, oxidizing agent and reducing agent should be determined.

- In an ordinary flashlight battery, an oxidation reaction and a reduction reaction rake place at different locations to produce an electric current that consists of electrons. In one of the reactions, the zinc container of the battery slowly dissolves as it is converted into zinc ions. Is this the oxidation or the reduction reaction? Is this reaction the source of electrons, or are electrons used to carry out the reaction?
