Answer : The oxidizing element is N and reducing element is O. 

KNO_{3} is act as an oxidizing agent as well as reducing agent.

Explanation :

An Oxidizing agent is the agent which has ability to oxidize other or a higher in oxidation number.

Reducing agent is the agent which has ability to reduce other or lower in oxidation number.

The given reaction is :

KNO_{3} \rightarrow KNO_{2} +O_{2}

KNO_{3}  act as an oxidizing agent.

The oxidation number of N in KNO_{3} is calculated as:

(+1)+(x)+3(-2) = 0

x = +5

And the oxidation number of N in KNO_{2}  is calculated as:

(+1)+(x)+2(-2) = 0

x = +3

From the oxidation number method, we conclude that the oxidation number  reduced this means KNO_{3} itself get reduced to KNO_{2} and it can act as an oxidizing agent.

KNO_{3}  act as a reducing agent.

KNO_{3} \rightarrow KNO_{2} +O_{2}

The oxidation number of O in KNO_{3} is calculated as:

(+1)+(+5)+3(x) = 0

x = -2

The oxidation number of O in O_{2} is Zero (o).

Now, we conclude that the oxidation number increases this means KNO_{3} itself get oxidized to O_{2} and it can act as reducing agent.

Defferent between crysttiline solid and amerphus solid​
Alexxx [7]

Answer:

Crystalline solids have well-defined edges and faces, diffract x-rays, and tend to have sharp melting points. In contrast, amorphous solids have irregular or curved surfaces, do not give well-resolved x-ray diffraction patterns, and melt over a wide range of temperatures.

Explanation:

Hope this helped!

Predict the products of the reaction below
Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

HNO₃ + NaOH ---> NaNO₃ + H₂O

Explanation:

This reaction appears to be a double-displacement reaction. In these reaction, the cation of one compound is swapped with the cation of another.

As such, the hydrogen cation (H⁺) from HNO₃ is swapped with the sodium cation (Na⁺) of NaOH.

Luckily, all of the cations have a +1 charge and the anions have a -1 charge. This means that no coefficients are necessary to balance the reaction.

The <u>complete balanced </u>equation is:

HNO₃ + NaOH ---> NaNO₃ + H₂O
