Gold is a very nonreactive metal therefore it doesn't rust . Metals lose their shine because they react to other substances .

Hope This Helps You!

3. Identify the oxidizing agent in each of the fol-
Oxana [17]

Answer:

Cu

Fe

Explanation:

Oxidizing agents:

Oxidizing agents oxidize the other elements and itself gets reduced.

Reducing agents:

Reducing agents reduced the other element are it self gets oxidized.

Oxidation:

Oxidation involve the removal of electrons and oxidation state of atom of an element is increased.

Reduction:

Reduction involve the gain of electron and oxidation number is decreased.

a) Cu²⁺ (aq) + Mg(s) + Cu(s) + Mg²⁺(aq)

Copper is oxidizing agent it accept two electrons from magnesium and oxidize the Mg and itself get reduced.

b) Fe₂O₃(s) + 3CO(g) → 2Fe(l) + 3CO₂(g)​

In this reaction iron is oxidizing agent because iron itself reduced from +3 to 0.

C) Define the following terms :-<br> Aufbau Principle
vaieri [72.5K]

Roughly, Aufbau Principle says that in an atom or an ion, electrons enter the shell with low energy first before entering the shell with high energy.

An atom has shells around its nucleus. Electrons enter these shells and orbit around the nucleus of an atom. To say about the properties of these shells, the shell nearest to the nucleus has the lowest energy. The farther the shell from the nucleus, the higher its energy. Aufbau Principle states that electrons enter the closest shell to the nucleus first since it has the lowest energy. When that shell has its maximum number of electrons is can hold, then the next electron will enter the second-closest shell to the nucleus, which has higher energy than the first shell.
