Answer:
2Al+ 6HNO3 ---- 3H2 + 2Al(NO3)3
Explanation:
Put coefficient a,b,c, and d for calculation:
a Al + b HNO3 = c H2 + d Al(NO3)3
for Al: a = d
for H: b = 2c
for N: b = 3d
for O: 3b = 9d
Suppose a=1, then d=1, b=3, c=3/2
multiply 2 to make all natural number, a=2, then b=6, c=3, d=2
Explanation:
no of moles = no of atoms ÷ avogadro's number
= (9.8×10^24) ÷ (6.02×10^23)

Answer: Li is the reducing agentg and O is the oxidizing agent.
Explanation:
1) The oxidizing agent is the one that is reduced and the reducing agent is the one that is oxidized.
2) The given reaction is:
4Li(s) + O₂ (g) → 2 Li₂O(s)
3) Determine the oxidation states of each atom:
Li(s): oxidation state = 0 (since it is alone)
O₂ (g): oxidation state = 0 (since it is alone)
Li in Li₂O (s) +1
O in Li₂O -2
That because 2× (+1) - 2 = 0.
4) Determine the changes:
Li went from 0 to + 1, therefore it got oxidized and it is the reducing agent.
O went from 0 to - 2, therefore it got reduced and it is the oxidizing agent.
