Position of element in periodic table is depend on the electronic configuration of element.

Element with 62 electrons has following electronic configuration:
<span>1s2 2s2 </span>2p6 <span>3s2 </span>3p6 4s2 3d10 4p6 <span>5s2 </span>4d10 5p6 4f6 <span>6s<span>2
</span></span>
From above electronic configuration, it can be seen that highest value of principal quantum number, where electron is present, is 6. Hence, element belongs to 6th period.

Further, last electron has entered f-orbital, hence it is a f-block element. Position of f-block element is the bottom of periodic table.

Further, there are 6 electrons in f-orbital. Hence, it is the 6th f-block element in 6th period of periodic table.

What is the oxidizing agent in the following equation? Al (s) + 3 Ag+ (aq) produces Al^+3 (aq) + 3 Ag (s)
Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

Ag is the oxidizing agent

Explanation:

oxidizing agent in the following equation?

Al (s) + 3 Ag+ (aq) = Al+3 (aq) + 3 Ag (s)

Left side

Al = 1

Ag = 3

Right Side

Al = 1

Ag = 3

So it's balanced already good.

Define

oxidizing agent = An oxidizing agent is the substance that gains electrons and is reduced in a chemical reaction.

Al is the reducing agent.

Ag is the oxidizing agent
