Answer:

C. Gain in electron(s) resulting in a decrease of oxidation number.

Explanation:

Redox reactions are reactions involving transfer of of electron between two species (reduction specie) and (oxidation species) and change resulting in change in oxidation number.

Reduction in terms of redox reaction is the specie that accepts electron(s) and gets "reduced" since its oxidation state has been reduced.

For example

Cl + e- → Cl⁻

The above reaction is an example of reduction reaction taking place in a redox reaction. We can see that Chlorine oxidation state was changed from (0) to (-1) state.

Which beakers in the model contain solid insoluble substances?
ladessa [460]
Although the models are not provided, I was able to find them and the beakers with solid present in them are:
1C
2A
2C
3A
3C

This is determined by the fact that the beakers all have a piece of closely packed substance laying at the bottom. This closely packed lattice is characteristic of solid substances, and the fact that they exist in the solution in the solid states indicates that they are insoluble.
