Answer:

Each copper gains two electrons

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.

Chemical equation:

CuSO₄ + Mn   →  MnSO₄  + Cu

This is single replacement reaction. Manganese replace the copper and react with sulfate to form copper sulfate.

Copper gains two electrons and gets reduced. The oxidation state of copper on left side is +2 while on right side its 0 so it gain two electrons and gets reduced.

while oxidation state of manganese on left side is 0 while on right side its +2. It means Mn lose to electrons and gets oxidized.

So  copper is oxidizing agent while manganese is reducing agent.

while the oxidation state of sulfate is not changed.

Butoxors [25]

Answer:

The factor that will change the volume of the diver's lungs upon reaching the surface is 4

Explanation:

Given data:

Pressure increases 1 atm = 101.325 kPa

34 ft = 10.3632 m

Depth of 102 ft = 31.0896 m

Question: What factor will the volume of the diver's lungs change upon arrival at the surface, V₂/V₁ = ?

The pressure at 31.0896 m:

P_{1} =101.325+(\frac{31.0896}{10.3632} *101.325)=405.3kPa

The factor will the volume of the diver's lungs change upon arrival at the surface:

\frac{V_{2}}{V_{1} } =\frac{P_{1}}{P_{2}} =\frac{405.3}{101.325} =4
