Answer:
Metal
Element: Calcium
Valency: 2
Explanation:
To find the element, let's use the periodic table. (Look below)
We already went past 3 shells, just need the 2 electrons after it.
Just skip to the 4th row and count 2 to the right
We end up at Calcium.
Calcium is a metal and we're also on the alkaline earth metals column.
Calcium will need to lose 2 electrons to reach stability, so the valency is 2.
The half-reaction includes either the reduction or the oxidation reaction of the redox reactions. In acidic solution permanganate ion will react with hydrogen ion to yield manganese ion and water.
<h3>What are Redox reactions?</h3>
Redox or oxidation-reduction reactions are the chemical reactions in which the oxidation and the reduction of the chemical species occur simultaneously.
Permanganate (VII) ion is a strong oxidizing agent and gets easily reduced to manganese ion in presence of the hydrogen ion in an acidic solution.
The balanced half-reaction for reduction is shown as,
