Answer:

No reaction

Explanation:

Single-displacement reaction is the chemical reaction in which one metal which has higher negative redox potential replaces the another from it's salt solution.

Thus, Cu cannot replaces zine from its salt as it is less reactive than zince.

However, zinc can replace copper from its salt as:

$Zn_{(s)}+Cu(NO_3)_2_{(aq)}\rightarrow Cu_{(s)}+Zn(NO_3)_2_{(aq)}$

Consider the redox reaction below.

vovangra [49]

Answer:

Zn(s) → Zn⁺²(aq) + 2e⁻

Explanation:

Let us consider the complete redox reaction:

Zn(s) + 2HCl(aq) → ZnCl₂(aq) + H₂(g)

This is a redox reaction because, both oxidation and reduction is simultaneously taking place.

Oxidation (loss of electrons or increase in the oxidation state of entity)
Reduction (gain of electrons or decrease in the oxidation state of the entity)

An element undergoes oxidation or reduction in order to achieve a stable configuration. It can be an octet configuration. An octet configuration is that of outer shell configuration of noble gas.

Here Zn(s) is undergoing oxidation from OS 0 to +2

And H in HCl (aq) is undergoing reduction from OS +1 to 0.

Therefore, for this reaction;

Oxidation Half equation is:

Zn(s) → Zn⁺²(aq) + 2e⁻

Reduction Half equation is:

2H⁺ + 2e⁻ → H₂(g)
