1) The metal which reduces the other compound is the one higher in the reactivity. So in this case it is
.
2) The substance which brings about reduction while itself getting oxidised (that is losing electrons) is called a reducing agent. Here, $\mathrm{Zn}$ is the reducing agent and reduces Cobalt Oxide to Cobalt while itself getting oxidised to Zinc oxide.
Make sure have same amounts of species on both sides
Cu (s) + 2 AgNO3 (aq) -> Cu(NO3)2 (aq) + 2 Ag (s)
Answer:
25%
Explanation:
Half life means that 50% of the sample is gone at 3.3 years. This means that an additional 3.3 years (total 6.6 years) will reduce the sample a further 50% from the point at 3.3 years. In numbers, this means 50% of 50% (0.50*0.50), which is 25%.
