Answer:
Pb oxidation number is +2
C in CH4 is -4. H is +1. 4H + 1C = 0. ; 4(+1) + C = 0 ; C = -4
O is usually -2. 3O = 3(-2) = -6. ; 2Fe =. +6 ; each Fe is +3
2Ag = +2 since O = -2 ; each Ag = +1
Answer:
Cu
Fe
Explanation:
Oxidizing agents:
Oxidizing agents oxidize the other elements and itself gets reduced.
Reducing agents:
Reducing agents reduced the other element are it self gets oxidized.
Oxidation:
Oxidation involve the removal of electrons and oxidation state of atom of an element is increased.
Reduction:
Reduction involve the gain of electron and oxidation number is decreased.
a) Cu²⁺ (aq) + Mg(s) + Cu(s) + Mg²⁺(aq)
Copper is oxidizing agent it accept two electrons from magnesium and oxidize the Mg and itself get reduced.
b) Fe₂O₃(s) + 3CO(g) → 2Fe(l) + 3CO₂(g)
In this reaction iron is oxidizing agent because iron itself reduced from +3 to 0.
5 is the atomic number, 11 is the atomic mass and boron is the element
