AgNO₃ will act as the oxidising agent.
<h3><u>For the given chemical equation:</u></h3>
Cu + 2AgNO₃ → 2Ag + Cu(NO₃)₂
Half reactions for the given chemical reaction:
<u>Reducing agent:</u>
Cu → Cu²⁺ + 2e⁻
Copper is a reducing agent because it is losing 2 electrons, which causes an oxidation process.
<u>Oxidising Agent</u>:
Ag⁺ + e⁻ → Ag
The silver ion undergoes a reduction process and is regarded as an oxidizing agent since it is acquiring one electron per atom.
Hence, AgNO₃ is considered as an oxidizing agent and therefore the correct answer is Option B.
<h3><u>
Oxidising and Reducing agents</u></h3>
- An oxidizing agent is a substance that reduces itself after oxidizing another material. It passes through a reduction process in which it obtains electrons and the substance's oxidation state is decreased.
- A reducing agent is a chemical that oxidizes after reducing another material. It passes through an oxidation process in which it loses electrons and the substance's oxidation state increases.

Answer:
d. Copper (II) sulfate
Explanation:
Given data:
Mass of Al = 1.25 g
Mass of CuSO₄ = 3.28 g
What is limiting reactant = ?
Solution:
Chemical equation:
2Al + 3CuSO₄ → Al₂ (SO₄)₃ + 3Cu
Number of moles of Al:
Number of moles = mass/molar mass
Number of moles = 1.25 g/ 27 g/mol
Number of moles = 0.05 mol
Number of moles of CuSO₄:
Number of moles = mass/molar mass
Number of moles = 3.28 g/ 159.6 g/mol
Number of moles = 0.02 mol
now we will compare the moles of reactant with product.
Al : Al₂ (SO₄)₃
2 : 1
0.05 : 1/2×0.05=0.025 mol
Al : Cu
2 : 3
0.05 : 3/2×0.05 = 0.075 mol
CuSO₄ : Al₂ (SO₄)₃
3 : 1
0.02 : 1/3×0.02=0.007 mol
CuSO₄ : Cu
3 : 3
0.02 : 0.02
Less number of moles of reactants are produced by CuSO₄ thus it will act as limiting reactant.
The answer is •c•
Hope this is correct I tried
1. I think it is true?
2. Low melting points
3. True
4. Atomic number, I think it’s periods?
5. Groups?
Sorry, I might not get all of them right :(
Hope this helps you in any way!!
