Answer:

Al(s) ⇄ Al³⁺(aq) + 3e⁻  (oxidation)

Mg⁺²(aq) + 2e⁻ ⇄ Mg(s) (reduction)

Explanation:

In the cell notation, first is placed the anode and then the cathode, so Al(s) is in the anode, where an oxidation reaction is taking place, and Mg²⁺ is in the cathode, where a reduction reaction is taking place. The half-reactions are:

Al(s) ⇄ Al³⁺(aq) + 3e⁻  (oxidation)

Mg⁺²(aq) + 2e⁻ ⇄ Mg(s) (reduction)

For the global reaction, it'll be necessary that the number of electrons (e⁻) is equal in the half-reactions, so the first one is multiplied by 2 and the second by three and the global reaction is:

2Al(s) + 3Mg⁺²(aq) ⇄ 2Al³⁺(aq) + 3Mg(s)

Explain how you could use the solubility of a substance to make a saturated solution.
dlinn [17]
A saturated solution is prepared by continuously adding solute to the solution until a stage is reached where the solute appears as a solid precipitate or as crystals to form a highly saturated solution. Consider the process of adding table sugar to a container of water.
