Reduction <span>always results in a lowering of the oxidation number. The reaction of the system above is written as:

</span><span>Cu2+(aq) + Fe(s) --> Cu(s) + Fe2+(aq) 
</span>
From the reaction, we see that copper goes from the +2 to a neutral charge. Lowering of the oxidation number happens so this is the element that is being reduced.

A negatively charged balloon has 2.6 µc of charge. how many excess electrons are on this balloon? the elemental charge is 1.6 ×
Salsk061 [2.6K]
The given 2.6 µC of charge is due to a buildup of electrons, each of which has a charge of 1.6 x 10^-19 C. The 2.6 <span>µC is equivalent to 2.6 x 10^-6 C, so we can divide this by the individual charge of an electron:
</span>2.6 x 10^-6 C / 1.6 x 10^-19 (C/electron) = 1.625 x 10^13 electrons

Explanation:

You simply add the volumes :) If this was a case that involved titration, you would use the formula M1V1 = M2V2. I do not know if that is what you were referring to but based on the information you gave, you simply add the two volumes.
