Answer is: reducin agent in this reaction is thiosulfate (S₂O₃²⁻).
Balanced chemical reaction: 2S₂O₃²⁻(aq) + I₂(aq) → S₄O₆²⁻(aq) + 2I⁻<span>(aq).
Reducing agent is element or compound who loose electrons in chemical reaction. Sulfur in </span>thiosulfate change oxidation number from +2 to +5 tetrathionate anion (two<span> sulfur </span>atoms in the ion have oxidation state<span> 0 and two atoms have oxidation state +5).</span>
Answer:
Ksp = 2.74 x 10⁻⁵
Explanation:
The solubility equilibrium for Ca(OH)₂ is the following:
Ca(OH)₂(s) ⇄ Ca²⁺(aq) + 2 OH⁻(aq)
I 0 0
C + s + 2s
E s 2s
According to the ICE table, the expression for the solubility product constant (Kps) is:
Ksp = [Ca²⁺] x ([OH⁻])² = s x (2s)² = 4s³
Then, we calculate Ksp from the solubility value (s):
s = 0.019 M
⇒ Ksp = 4s³ = 4 x (0.019)³ = 2.74 x 10⁻⁵

I can’t really explain in words so I took a pic of the work I did (Ignore the worksheet and just look at what I wrote to balance the equation.)
