Answer : Al
Explanation :
- For a given redox reaction there must be an oxidizing agent/(s) and a reducing agent/(s).
- the oxidizing agent is the substance that undergoes reduction process (gaining electrons or loss of oxygen atoms), meanwhile, the reducing agent is the substance that undergoes oxidation process (loss of electrons or gaining of oxygen atoms).
- In the reaction above, the oxidation number of (Al) in AlCl3 is (3+). However, the oxidation number of (Al) in the products is zero because it exists as a single element.
Therefore, changing from (3+) to zero means gaining of (3) electrons to neutralize the previously existing (3) protons on (Al) in AlCl3.
So Al is the oxidizing agent..
<span>The lattice structure in a metal is weaker than the lattice structure of an ionic compound. This is because the metals have free electrons which can freely move around while ionic compounds are strongly bonded. Hope this answers the question.</span>
Answer: Absolute dating is used to determine a precise age of a rock or fossil through radiometric dating methods. This uses radioactive minerals that occur in rocks and fossils almost like a geological clock. ... These isotopes break down at a constant rate over time through radioactive decay.
It contains nutrients and minerals that could sustain biological life
