Answer:

1. Cu = +2

2. O = – 2

3. C = +2

4. N = 0

Explanation:

Note:

A. The oxidation state of oxygen is always – 2 except in peroxides where it is – 1.

B. The oxidation state of Hydrogen is always +1 except in metallic hydrides where it is – 1.

Now let us solve the question given above.

1. CuO = 0 (ground state)

Cu + O = 0

O = – 2

Cu + (– 2) = 0

Cu – 2 = 0

Collect like terms

Cu = 0 + 2

Cu = +2

2. H2O = 0 (ground state)

2H + O = 0

H = +1

2(1) + O = 0

2 + O = 0

Collect like terms

O = 0 – 2

O = – 2

3. CO = 0 (ground state)

C + O = 0

O = – 2

C + (– 2) = 0

C – 2 = 0

Collect like terms

C = 0 + 2

C = +2

4. N2 = 0 (ground state)

2N = 0

Divide both side by 2

N = 0/2

N = 0

What is the standard reduction potential, E, for the half-reaction Al3+ (aq)
olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

E° = -1.66 V

Explanation:

The standard reduction potential is also known as the standard electrode potentials and it tries to find the probability that an element will be reduced or undergo reduction.

From activation series online showing the standard reduction potentials for half cells, the standard reduction potential of Al3+ (aq) + 3e- -> Al(s) is;

E° = -1.66 V
