Answer:

Cu

Explanation:

In the given reaction of the addition of copper to nitric acid,

Cu(s) + 4HNO3(aq) -> Cu(NO3)2(aq) + 2NO2(g) + 2H2O(l)

Cu or copper would be characterized as the reducing agent in this reaction. It is the chemical substance that is losing electrons and being oxidized due to this reduction/loss in this redox reaction as it is the metal that loses electrons by reacting with the non-metals.

Answer:

Concentration of solution B is  

Explanation:

Solution A: Total volume of solution A = (9.00+1.00) mL = 10.00 mL

According to law of dilution,  

where  and  are initial and final concentration respectively.  and  are initial and final volume respectively.

Here  = ,  = 1.00 mL,  = 10.00 mL

So,  =  

So, concentration of solution A =  

Solution B: Total volume of solution B = (2.00+8.00) mL = 10.00 mL

Similarly as above,  =  

So, concentration of solution B =
