<u>Answer:</u> Lithium is getting oxidized and is a reducing agent. Hydrogen is getting reduced and is oxidizing agent.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Oxidation reaction is defined as the reaction in which an atom looses its electrons. Here, oxidation state of the atom increases.

X\rightarrow X^{n+}+ne^-

Reduction reaction is defined as the reaction in which an atom gains electrons. Here, the oxidation state of the atom decreases.

X^{n+}+ne^-\rightarrow X

Oxidizing agents are defined as the agents which oxidize other substance and itself gets reduced. These agents undergoes reduction reactions.

Reducing agents are defined as the agents which reduces the other substance and itself gets oxidized. These agents undergoes reduction reactions.

For the given chemical reaction:

2Li(s)+2H_2O(l)\rightarrow 2LiOH(aq.)+H_2(g)

The half reactions for the above reaction are:

Oxidation half reaction: 2Li(s)\rightarrow 2Li^{+}(aq.)+2e^-

Reduction half reaction: 2H^(aq.)+2e^-\rightarrow H_2(g)

From the above reactions, lithium is loosing its electrons. Thus, it is getting oxidized and is considered as a reducing agent.

Hydrogen is gaining electrons and thus is getting reduced and is considered as an oxidizing agent.

How many grams are there in 7.4 x 1023 molecules of H2SO4?
bazaltina [42]

7.4x10^23 = molecules of silver nitrate sample  

6.022x10^23 number of molecules per mole (Avogadro's number)  

Divide molecules of AgNO3 by # of molecules per mol  

7.4/6.022 = 1.229 mols AgNO3 (Sig Figs would put this at 1.3)  

(I leave off the x10^23 because they both will divide out)  

Use your periodic table to find the molar weight of silver nitrate.  

107.868(Ag) + 14(N) + 3(16[O]) = 169.868g/mol AgNO3  

Now multiply your moles of AgNO3 with your molar weight of AgNO3  

1.229mol x 169.868g/mol = 208.767g AgNO3
