Answer
thus, 4 moles of oxygen gas (O2) would have a mass of 128 g.
K is Potassium
Cl is Chlorine
There are 2 elements.
Answer: the second option: <span>Iron is being oxidized
</span>
Explanation:
1) Oxidation is the increase of the oxidation state (number) due to the loss of electrons.
2) In the given reaction, you can see that in the left side the atom is Fe.
When an element (atom) is not combined (or combined with it self) its oxidation state is 0.
3) In the right side of the given equation you that iron is now in form of cation with charge 2+: Fe²⁺.
That means that the new oxidation state of the element is 2+.
4) This change in the oxidation state, of course, is accompanied by the loss of the two electrons: 2e⁻.
5) Conclusion: the iron has oxidized by losing two electrons and increasing its oxidation state from 0 to 2+.

So,
With addition, we the last digit we keep will be the one which is known for both individual values.
We know 2.13 to the hundredths, but we only know 1 to the ones. Therefore, we will round off in the ones place.
2.13 + 1 = 3.13 (unrounded)
= 3 (rounded)
Hope this helps!
