Oxidation reaction
is a type of reaction wherein there is a
loss of electrons. An oxidation reaction may also be a reducing agent. Example
is the reaction Zn + 2H+ = Zn2+ + H2. When you separate them by their half cell
reaction, you have 2H+ 1e- = H2. H here is the reducing agent and has lost 1
electron in the process.
The given condition is STP, under this condition, gas has a rule of 22.4 L per mole. And the given equation is already balanced. The ratio of mole number is the same as the ratio of the volume and is also the same as the ratio of coefficients. So the answer is 4.0 liters.
