Balance each one by adding electrons to make the charges on both sides the same:
Sn--> Sn2+ + 2 e-
Ag+ + 1 e- --> Ag
Now, you have to have the same number of electrons in the two half-reactions, so multiply the second one by 2 to get:
2 Ag+ + 2 e- --> 2 Ag
Now, just add the two half reactions together, cancelling anything that's the same on both sides:
2 Ag+ + Sn --> Sn2+ + 2 Ag
And you're done.
Answer:
A) oxidizing agent is SO2
B) NaClO is the oxidizing agent
Explanation:
A) This is a redox reaction in which oxidation and reduction occur simultaneously.
Thus, in 2H2S(g) + SO2(g) -> 2H2O(l) + 3S(s);
H2S is reduced as follows;
H2S → S + 2H+ + 2e−
We can see that SO2 has been reduced while H2S gets oxidized since it has changed state from - 2 to 0 . Thus sulphur dioxide is the oxidizing agent.
B) SO2(g) + H2O(l) + NaClO(aq) -> NaCl(aq) + H2SO4(aq)
In this, SO2 undergoes oxidation and NaClO is the oxidizing agent
An electron is a negatively charged subatomic particle, whereas a proton is positively charged, and a neutron has no charge.
B upper boundary of the zone of saturation, land beneath this line is saturated with water.
