Answer: 3
Explanation:
An oxide-reduction reaction or, simply, redox reaction, is a <u>chemical reaction in which one or more electrons are transferred between the reactants</u>, causing a change in their oxidation states, which is the hypothetical electric charge that the atom would have if all its links with different elements were 100% ionic.
For there to be a reduction-oxidation reaction, in the system there must be an element that yields electrons and another that accepts them:
-
The oxidizing agent picks up electrons and remains with a state of oxidation inferior to that which it had, that is, it is reduced.
- The reducing agent supplies electrons from its chemical structure to the medium, increasing its oxidation state, ie, being oxidized.
To balance a redox equation you must <u>identify the elements that are oxidized and reduced and the amount of electrons that they release or capture, respectively.
</u>
In the reaction that arises in the question the silver (Ag) is reduced <u>because it decreases its oxidation state from +1 to 0</u> and the aluminum (Al) is oxidized because <u>its oxidation state increases from 0 to +3</u>, releasing 3 electrons (e⁻). Then we can raise two half-reactions:
Ag⁺ + e⁻ → Ag⁰
Al⁰ → Al⁺³ + 3e⁻
In order to obtain the balanced equation, we must multiply the first half-reaction by 3 so that, when both half-reactions are added, the electrons are canceled. In this way:
(Ag⁺ + e⁻ → Ag⁰ ) x3
Al⁰ → Al⁺³ + 3e⁻ +
-------------------------------------
3Ag⁺ + Al⁰ → 3Ag⁰ + Al⁺³
So, the coefficient of silver in the final balanced equation is 3.

The correct definition of density is the degree of compactness of a substance.
A-leads to the abrasion of rocks and minerals
A-dense vegetation cover
True
Explanation:
Weathering is the physical disintegration and chemical decomposition of rocks to form sediments and soils.
Agent of weathering are wind, water and glacier.
Chemical weathering contributes to physical weathering in that it leads to the abrasion of rocks and minerals.
During chemical weathering, a rock chemically combines with materials in the environment and weakens it.
When physical weathering processes are induced, grains produced independently weakening of bonds in rocks grind against one another and wears each other off.
An area with a dense vegetation cover undergoes rapid chemical weathering:
- Plant roots penetrates deep into the rock and increases the surface area of chemical action.
- Plants produce chemicals that combines with rocks and causes them to decay.
- Since the area is always moist, chemical action becomes more severe.
Buildings and statues made of stone are subjected to the same degree of weathering as rocks exposed naturally.
This is true.
Statues and buildings weather just like rocks we find in nature.
It is the same sunshine and rain that impacts rocks that also impacts buildings and statues.
So they degrade at the same rate except they are protected.
