Which is the most likely to be reduced?
NISA [10]

Answer : The correct option is, Zn^{2+}

Explanation :

  • Oxidation reaction : It is defined as the reaction in which a substance looses its electrons. That means, the loss of electrons takes place.

Or we can say that, oxidation reaction occurs when a reactant losses electrons in the reaction.

  • Reduction reaction : It is defined as the reaction in which a substance gains electrons. That means, the gain of electrons takes place.

Or we can say that, reduction reaction occurs when a reactant gains electrons in the reaction.

According to the electrochemical series, Zn^{2+} most likely to be reduced because

Hence, the ion most likely to be reduced is Zn^{2+}.

MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

m_{O_2}=61.87gO_2

m_{CO_2}=85.07gCO_2

Explanation:

Hello,

Considering the given reaction's stoichiometry, grams of oxygen result:

m_{O_2}=58.0gC_6H_{12}O_6*\frac{1molC_6H_{12}O_6}{180gC_6H_{12}O_6}*\frac{6molO_2}{1molC_6H_{12}O_6}*\frac{32gO_2}{1molO_2}\\m_{O_2}=61.87gO_2

Moreover, the mass of produced carbon dioxide turns out:

m_{CO_2}=58.0gC_6H_{12}O_6*\frac{1molC_6H_{12}O_6}{180gC_6H_{12}O_6}*\frac{6molCO_2}{1molC_6H_{12}O_6}*\frac{44gCO_2}{1molCO_2}\\m_{O_2}=85.07gCO_2

Best regards.
