4 0

Answer:

Explanation:

The oxidation reduction reactions are called redox reaction. These reactions are take place by gaining or losing the electrons and oxidation state of elements are changed.

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.

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.

In given example,

Magnesium is able to <u>reduced</u> the copper and copper is able to <u>oxidized</u> the magnesium.

Zinc is able to <u>oxidized</u> the magnesium and magnesium is able to <u>reduced</u> the zinc.

Copper is able to <u>oxidized</u> the zinc and zinc is able to <u>reduced</u> the copper.

Explain in terms of types of matter why methane can be broken down by chemical means but argon cannot?
Fynjy0 [20]
Argon is a pure element which means that it cannot be broken down further than it already is. Methane, however, is a hydrocarbon, which means it is made out of both hydrogen and carbon and thus can be broken down to separate those elements.

How can I balance chemical equations by providing the correct coefficients? For example: [?]Pb(NO3)2 + [?]NaCrO4 = [?]PbCrO4 + [
melomori [17]

Answer:

Pb(NO₃)₂ + Na₂CrO₄ —> PbCrO₄ + 2NaNO₃

The coefficients are: 1, 1, 1, 2

Explanation:

Pb(NO₃)₂ + Na₂CrO₄ —> PbCrO₄ + NaNO₃

The above equation can be balance as follow:

Pb(NO₃)₂ + Na₂CrO₄ —> PbCrO₄ + NaNO₃

There are 2 atoms of Na on the left side and 1 atom on the right side. It can be balance by writing 2 before NaNO₃ as shown below:

Pb(NO₃)₂ + Na₂CrO₄ —> PbCrO₄ + 2NaNO₃

Now the equation is balanced.

The coefficients are: 1, 1, 1, 2
