Zinc would be considered the strongest reducing agent.

<h3>Reducing agent</h3>

A reducing agent is a chemical species that "donates" one electron to another chemical species in chemistry (called the oxidizing agent, oxidant, oxidizer, or electron acceptor). Earth metals, formic acid, oxalic acid, and sulfite compounds are a few examples of common reducing agents.

Reducers have excess electrons (i.e., they are already reduced) in their pre-reaction states, whereas oxidizers do not. Usually, a reducing agent is in one of the lowest oxidation states it can be in. The oxidation state of the oxidizer drops while the oxidizer's oxidation state, which measures the amount of electron loss, increases. The agent in a redox process whose oxidation state rises, which "loses/donates electrons," which "oxidizes," and which "reduces" is known as the reducer or reducing agent.

The number of moles of hydrogen that is needed to produce 0.253 mol of water is...
Oksi-84 [34.3K]
The chemical formula of water is written as H2O we can just use the ratio of the atoms since we are not given the reaction. Hydrogen is a diatomic substance so that it exists as H2. We calculate as follows:

0.253 mol H2O ( 1 mol H2 / 1 mol H2O ) = 0.253 H2 needed

Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.

motikmotik

Answer: 1.466 g/mL

Explanation:

\frac{0.6305 \text{kg}}{0.430 \text{L}} \cdot \frac{1000 \text{g}}{1 \text{kg}} \cdot  \frac{1 \text{L}}{1000 \text{mL}} = 1.466 \,\frac{\text{g}}{\text{mL}}
