The species that is reduced in

2K + Br2 = 2K^+ + 2Br^-


is  Br2 is reduced

This is because  Br2   move from oxidation state  zero  to   oxidation state of negative  one.  K  is  been oxidized since it   move from oxidation  state  zero  to oxidation state  of  positive  one.  K  act as a reducing agent while Br2 act as  a oxidizing  agent

In a redox chemical reaction, one species gets reduced and another gets oxidized. Manganese element is reduced in this reaction.

<h3>What is oxidized and reduced?</h3>

In a redox reaction, the increase or decrease in the oxidation number and electrons results in the reduction and oxidation of the chemical species. The oxidation and reduction occur simultaneously in a reaction.

The oxidation number of Mn in permanganate ion was +8 on the left side and decreased to +4 on the right side of the equation. Potassium permanganate is an oxidizing agent that has reduced the manganese ion of the permanganate ion.

Therefore, manganese is reduced.

Describe the physical and chemical weathering​
Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

Physical weathering is caused by purely mechanical changes to the rock, while chemical weathering is caused by chemical reactions.

Explanation:

Chemical weathering happens when the chemicals get diluted and dissolved in water and seep and percolate down the rock surfaces.

Physical weathering happens when rocks are fragmented into minor fragments while ensuring no alterations in their chemical makeup. The main causes behind physical weathering include spontaneous fluctuations in temperature like too high or too low heat or cold
