Hi,
your answer would be false. But it seems you already knew that.
I hoped I helped and if you need help you could always ask me :)

Because if you follow a fitness plan you can get done a lot of stuff that you can't without a plan so like you make a plan of what you are going to do instead of just doing random fitness stuff
Answer:
1. Cu
2. Cu
3. 2 electrons.
Explanation:
Step 1:
The equation for the reaction is given below:
3Cu(s) + 8HNO3(aq) -> 2NO(g) 3Cu(NO3)2(aq) + 4H2O(l)
Step 2:
Determination of the change of oxidation number of each element present.
For Cu:
Cu = 0 (ground state)
Cu(NO3)2 = 0
Cu + 2( N + 3O) = 0
Cu + 2(5 + (3 x -2)) =0
Cu + 2 (5 - 6) = 0
Cu + 2(-1) = 0
Cu - 2 = 0
Cu = 2
The oxidation number of Cu changed from 0 to +2
For N:
HNO3 = 0
H + N + 3O = 0
1 + N + (3 x - 2) = 0
1 + N - 6 = 0
N = 6 - 1
N = 5
NO = 0
N - 2 = 0
N = 2
The oxidation number of N changed from +5 to +2
The oxidation number of oxygen and hydrogen remains the same.
Note:
1. The oxidation number of Hydrogen is always +1 except in hydride where it is - 1
2. The oxidation number of oxygen is always - 2 except in peroxide where it is - 1
Step 3:
Answers to the questions given above
From the above illustration,
1. Cu is oxidize because its oxidation number increased from 0 to +2 as it loses electron.
2. Cu is the reducing agent because it reduces the oxidation number of N from +5 to +2.
3. The reducing agent i.e Cu transferred 2 electrons to the oxidising agent HNO3 because its oxidation number increase from 0 to +2 as it loses its electrons. This means that Cu transfer 2 electrons.
When the particles of a substance (usually a liquid) is heated up, its particles absorb the energy provided thereby increasing their kinetic energy resulting to more movement of the individual particles.
The heat (Q) required to raise the temp of a substance is:<span>Q=m∗Cp∗ΔT</span><span> where m is the mass of the object (25.0g in this case), Cp is the specific heat capacity of the substance (for water Cp = 1.00cal/gC, or 4.18J/gC,
and Dt is the change in temp.
You'll have to solve this twice, once with the Cp in calories, and once with the Cp in joules.
