The atom that is oxidized : Cr
The oxidizing agent : H₃PO₄
<h3>Further explanation</h3>
Reaction
2 H₃PO₄ (aq) + 2Cr(s) → 2 CrPO₄ (aq) + 3H₂(g)
Atoms undergoing a reduction reaction (decrease in oxidation number) and an oxidation reaction (increase in oxidation number)
H⁺(in H₃PO₄) =+1
H₂=0
Cr = 0
Cr³⁺(in CrPO₄ )
the oxidizing agent.⇒which undergoes a reduction reaction and oxidizes another compound/element : H₃PO₄
Since 1000 mg=1g
500mg=?
500/1000*1g=0.5g
Since we know that 500mg is 0.5g then divide 30g by 0.5g
30/0.5=60
Therefore the patients needs to take 60 tablets a day.
