Answer:Zn(OH)2(s) + 2e– Zn(s) + 2OH–(aq) E°= –1.25 V

Explanation:

The best reducing agent must have the most negative reduction potential. According to iupac convention, the reduction potential is used to depict the standard redox potentials of substances. Reducing agents have very negative reduction potentials while oxidizing agents have more positive reduction potentials.

8. Build a neutral lithium atom.
choli [55]

Answer:

Remove 1 electron

Explanation:

In the atom of each element, there are three subatomic particles viz: proton, neutron and electron. The number of proton (positively charged) and electron (negatively charged) determines the charge of that element. The more the proton, the more positively charged an ion is and vice versa for electron.

According to this question, a neutral atom of lithium (Li) with atomic no. 3 is given i.e. a lithium atom with charge 0. To make the lithium atom's charge change to +1, ONE ELECTRON MUST BE REMOVED OR LOST.

Note that, the proton number (atomic number) of an element does not change, rather the electron number changes in relation to the no. of protons.
