<u>Answer:</u> Aluminium is getting oxidized in the given chemical reaction.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Oxidation reaction is defined as the chemical reaction in which an atom looses its electrons. The oxidation number of the atom gets increased during this reaction.
Reduction reaction is defined as the chemical reaction in which an atom gains electrons. The oxidation number of the atom gets reduced during this reaction.
For the given chemical reaction:
The half cell reactions for the above reaction follows:
<u>Oxidation half reaction:</u> 
<u>Reduction half reaction:</u> 
As, aluminium is loosing 3 electrons to form aluminium cation. Thus, it is getting oxidized. Iron is gaining 2 electrons to form iron anion. Thus, it is getting reduced.
Hence, the oxidized species of the given reaction is aluminium.
Unless you are talking about one specific theory, the answer is pseudoscience.
Answer:
a)there would be no reaction
Explanation:
The activity series of metals has many functions. The one applicable to this problem is that it can be used to determine whether a reaction will occur or not. Also, based on the positions of metals in the series, we can know how reactive a metal is compared to another.
In a single displacement reaction, a metal replaces another metal based on their position on the activity series. Metals that are higher in the series are generally more reactive than others below them and so will displace them.
Would aluminum replace magnesium to form a new compound or would there be no reaction?
Magnesium is higher than aluminum in the activity series. Therefore it is more reactive than aluminum. No reaction will occur.
Answer:
it has to be a no cap !! buh
