Answer:

A. The correct option is: Cu; H₂SO₄; H₂SO₄; Cu

B. The correct option is: SO₂; HNO₃; HNO₃; SO₂

C. The correct option is: Zn; H₂SO₄; H₂SO₄; Zn

D. The correct option is: I₂; HNO₃; HNO₃; I₂

Explanation:

A chemical reaction that involves the simultaneous transfer of electrons between two chemical species is known as the redox reaction.

In this reaction, a species that gains electrons, thus getting reduced is called the <u>oxidizing agen</u>t. Whereas, species that loses electrons, thus getting oxidized is called the<u> reducing agent</u>.

<u>Oxidation</u> refers to an increase in the oxidation state and <u>reduction</u> refers to a decrease in the oxidation state.

A. Cu + 2H₂SO₄ → CuSO₄ + SO₂ +2H₂O

In this reaction, Cu goes from 0 in Cu to +4 oxidation state in CuSO₄ and thus gets oxidized. Whereas, S goes from +6 in H₂SO₄ to +4 oxidation state in SO₂ and thus gets reduced. Therefore, H₂SO₄ is the oxidizing agent and Cu is the reducing agent.

<u>The correct option is: Cu; H₂SO₄; H₂SO₄; Cu</u>

B. 3SO₂ + 2HNO₃ + 2H₂O → 3H₂SO₄ + 2NO

In this reaction, S goes from +4 in SO₂ to +6 oxidation state in H₂SO₄ and thus gets oxidized. Whereas, N goes from +5 in HNO₃ to +2 oxidation state in NO and thus gets reduced. Therefore, HNO₃ is the oxidizing agent and SO₂ is the reducing agent.

<u>The correct option is: SO₂; HNO₃; HNO₃; SO₂</u>

C. 5H₂SO₄ + 4Zn → 4ZnSO₄ + H₂S +4H₂O

In this reaction, Zn goes from 0 in Cu to +2 oxidation state in ZnSO₄ and thus gets oxidized. Whereas, S goes from +6 in H₂SO₄ to -2 oxidation state in H₂S and thus gets reduced. Therefore, H₂SO₄ is the oxidizing agent and Zn is the reducing agent.

<u>The correct option is: Zn; H₂SO₄; H₂SO₄; Zn</u>

D. I₂ + 10HNO₃ → 2HIO₃ + 10NO₂ + 4H₂O

In this reaction, I goes from 0 in I₂ to +5 oxidation state in HIO₃ and thus gets oxidized. Whereas, N goes from +5 in HNO₃ to +4 oxidation state in NO₂ and thus gets reduced. Therefore, HNO₃ is the oxidizing agent and I₂ is the reducing agent.  

<u>The correct option is: I₂; HNO₃; HNO₃; I₂</u>

Why is water called "the universal solvent" and why is this important for living things?
Aleks [24]
As it dissolves a large number of solid, liquid and gaseous substances it's called a universal solvent. It's important for living thing because all of them depend on water to survive. For example, many organisms live in the water and they find some of the nutrients that are necessary for live dissolved in water - gases included.
