Explanation:

Mg(s) + Cr(C2H3O2)3 (aq)

Overall, balanced molecular equation

Mg(s) + Cr(C2H3O2)3(aq) --> Mg(C2H3O2)3(aq) + Cr(s)

To identify if an element has been reduced or oxidized, the oxidation number is observed in both the reactant and product phase.

An increase in oxidation number denotes that the element has been oxidized.

A decrease in oxidation number denotes that the element has been reduced.

Oxidation number of Mg:

Reactant - 0

Product - +3

Oxidation number of Cr:

Reactant - +3

Product - 0

Note: C2H3O2 is actually acetate ion; CH3COO- The oxidatioon number of C, H and O do not change.

Oxidized : Mg

Reduced : Cr

<h3>no it is not allowed</h3>

Explanation:

<h3>Liwis structure shows the elements symbol with dots thet represents valance electrons ; in second row elements their atomic number is 3 up to 10 , from Li up to Ne from their electron configuration their valance electron will be from 1 up to 8 respectivelly ,if lewis structure represents the element with it is symbol and dots that represents valance electron the second row elements cannot have more than an octet of valance electrons surrounding it.</h3>
