Question

For each reaction, write the chemical formulae of the oxidized reactants in the space provided. Write the chemical formulae of the reduced reactants in the space provided.

Answer 1

Explanation:

First Reaction;

Ca + ZnCl2 --> CaCl2 + Zn

Oxidized Reactant: Ca. There is increase in oxidation number from 0 to +2

Reduced Reactant: Zn. There is decrease in  oxidation number form +2 to 0

Second Reaction:

FeI2 + Mg --> Fe + MgI2

Oxidized Reactant: Mg. There is increase in oxidation number from 0 to +2

Reduced Reactant: Fe. There is decrease in  oxidation number form +2 to 0

Third Reaction;

Mg + 2AgNO3 --> Mg(NO3)2 + Ag

Oxidized Reactant: Mg. There is increase in oxidation number from 0 to +2

Reduced Reactant: Ag. There is decrease in  oxidation number form +1 to 0
