1. Subscript is below
2. Coefficient large 2 indicates the number of moles
3. Atoms
1/2 O2 + H2 —> H2O
It’s the atoms that balance on each side
Notes that 1/2 is the coefficient and 2 is the subscript in H2 and H2O
Explanation:
Mg(s) + Cr(C2H3O2)3 (aq)
Overall, balanced molecular equation
Mg(s) + Cr(C2H3O2)3(aq) --> Mg(C2H3O2)3(aq) + Cr(s)
To identify if an element has been reduced or oxidized, the oxidation number is observed in both the reactant and product phase.
An increase in oxidation number denotes that the element has been oxidized.
A decrease in oxidation number denotes that the element has been reduced.
Oxidation number of Mg:
Reactant - 0
Product - +3
Oxidation number of Cr:
Reactant - +3
Product - 0
Note: C2H3O2 is actually acetate ion; CH3COO- The oxidatioon number of C, H and O do not change.
Oxidized : Mg
Reduced : Cr
Answer:
C
Explanation:
it belong to that group as it needs 1 electron to be chemically stable
The second one, b synthesis reaction
The more UV rays reach the earth
