Answer:
Ag is the oxidizing agent
Explanation:
oxidizing agent in the following equation?
Al (s) + 3 Ag+ (aq) = Al+3 (aq) + 3 Ag (s)
Left side
Al = 1
Ag = 3
Right Side
Al = 1
Ag = 3
So it's balanced already good.
Define
oxidizing agent = An oxidizing agent is the substance that gains electrons and is reduced in a chemical reaction.
Al is the reducing agent.
Ag is the oxidizing agent

48. The metallic potassium atoms lose one electron and form +1 cations,
and the nonmetallic fluorine atoms gain one electron and form –1 anions.
K → K+

The ionic bonds are the attractions between K+
cations and F–
anions.

52. (a) covalent…nonmetal-nonmetal (b) ionic…metal-nonmetal
54. (a) all nonmetallic atoms - molecular (b) metal-nonmetal - ionic
56. (a) 7 (b) 4
58. Each of the following answers is based on the assumption that nonmetallic
atoms tend to form covalent bonds in order to get an octet (8) of
electrons around each atom, like the very stable noble gases (other than
helium). Covalent bonds (represented by lines in Lewis structures) and lone
pairs each contribute two electrons to the octet.
(a) oxygen, O
If oxygen atoms form two covalent bonds, they will have an octet of electrons
around them. Water is an example:
H O H
(b) fluorine, F
If fluorine atoms form one covalent bond, they will have an octet of electrons
around them. Hydrogen fluoride, HF, is an example:
H F
(c) carbon, C
If carbon atoms form four covalent bonds, they will have an octet of electrons
around them. Methane, CH4, is an example:
H H

(d) phosphorus, P
If phosphorus atoms form three covalent bonds, they will have an octet
Answer:
Explanation:
1. Mass of zinc
The density of zinc is 7.14 g/cm³
D = m/V
2. Volume of aluminium
The density of aluminium is 2.60/cm³.
Answer:
A beta particle
Explanation:
The radioactive particle must undergo a beta decay to have the mass number unchanged but the atomic number to have decreased by one.
This type of beta decay results in the emission of a positron which is a type of beta particle. It resembles an electron but it has a positive charge of 1.
