After finding the oxidation states of atoms, you identify the half reactions (option c).
The half reactions are given by the change of the oxidation states of the atoms.
For example if Cu is in the left side with oxidation state 0 and in the other side with oxidation state 2+, then there you have a half reaction (oxidation reaction). And if you have O with oxidation state 0 in the left side and with oxidation state 2- in the right side, there you have other half reaction (reducing reaction).
oops pls forgive me I accidentally did the wrong question.
The molecularity of the elementary step X + X + Y → Z is 3.
<h3>What is Molecularity ?</h3>
Molecularity in chemistry is defined as the total number of molecules that react in an elementary reaction .
In the given question the elementary reaction given is
X + X + Y → Z?
or 2X +Y --> Z
X molecule is 2 and Y molecule is 1 so the molecularity is 2+1 = 3
The molecularity of the elementary step X + X + Y → Z is 3.

Answer:
The larger the number of the energy level, the farther it is from the nucleus. Electrons that are in the highest energy level are called valence electrons. Within each energy level is a volume of space where specific electrons are likely to be located.
1. Find its coordination figure/coordination number of central atom (CF)
Ev = Vallence electron of central atom
Σe = electrons donated from substituents
Terminal O gives 0 electrons, hence Σe = 3 x 0
charge = charge of the compound
2. Find EP (electron pairs) and LP (lone pairs)
LP = CF - EP
3. Draw the skeleton with octet substituents (top right figure)
4. Find formal charge for each atoms (Qf)
5. Write formal charge near atom in skeleton
6. Enjoy
