Answer: I2 is the Oxidant; while the 2S2O3(-2) is the reductant.
Explanation:
An Oxidant is any substance that oxidizes, or receives electrons from, another; in so doing, it becomes reduced in oxidation number.
A Reductant thus exactly the opposite.
Note that the equation provided shows that Iodine (I2) received an electron to become NEGATIVELY CHARGED:
I2 --> 2I-.
The oxidation number reduced from 0 to -1.
In contrast, the oxidation number of 2S2O3(-2) increases from -4 to -2.
Thus, I2 is the Oxidant; while the 2S2O3(-2) is the reductant.
Answer:
³⁸₂₀Ca.
Explanation:
³⁸₁₉K –> __ + ⁰₋₁β
Let ʸₓA represent the unknown.
Thus the equation above can be written as:
³⁸₁₉K –> ʸₓA + ⁰₋₁β
Thus, we can obtain the value of y an x as follow:
38 = y + 0
y = 38
19 = x + (–1)
19 = x – 1
Collect like terms
19 + 1 = x
x = 20
Thus,
ʸₓA => ³⁸₂₀A => ³⁸₂₀Ca
Therefore, the equation is:
³⁸₁₉K –> ³⁸₂₀Ca + ⁰₋₁β
