Answer: The equation is written below.

Explanation:

Copper is the 29th element of the periodic table having electronic configuration of $[Ar]3d^{10}4s^1$

When an atom looses an electron to form positive ion, it is called an oxidation reaction.

Copper will loose 1 electron to form +1 ion. The equation for the formation of copper (I) ion from neutral copper atom follows:

$Cu\rightarrow Cu^++1e^-$

Hence, the equation is written above.

2. Why does the CDC recommend hand sanitizers with at least 60% alcohol?! I

Answer:

Here's it:

Explanation:

Germs are everywhere! They can get onto hands and items we touch during daily activities and make us sick. Cleaning hands at key times with soap and water or hand sanitizer that contains at least 60% alcohol is one of the most important steps you can take to avoid getting sick and spreading germs to those around you.

There are important differences between washing hands with soap and water and using hand sanitizer. Soap and water work to remove all types of germs from hands, while sanitizer acts by killing certain germs on the skin. Although alcohol-based hand sanitizers can quickly reduce the number of germs in many situations, they should be used in the right situations.
