Answer: <span>A-Ce is oxidized because it is losing electrons and Cu is reduced because it is gaining electrons</span><span>.
</span>There are two reactions in the equation, oxidation and reduction. A molecule that oxidized will lose electrons while the molecule that reduced will gain electrons. In this case, Cu2+ changed into Cu which means its oxidation number reduced from +2 into 0. Ce oxidation number increased from 0 into +3
The answer is C. an endothermic reaction. The endothermic reaction means this reaction will absorb energy and exothermic reaction means this reaction will release energy.
