Solutions

Expert Solution

(a) Zn(s) + 2 HCl(aq) → ZnCl2(aq) + H2(g) Zn goes from 0 to Zn+2, it is losing e-, therefore OXidizing, it must be the reducing agent. H goes from +1 to 0, it is being reduced, it is the oxidizing agtnet

(b) CH4(g) + 2 O2(g) → CO2(g) + 2 H2O(g)

combustions are by definitoin,redox reactions. O2 is the oxidant agent, CH4 the reducing agent. C is being oxidizd and O2 is being reduced

(c) O3(g) + NO(g) → O2(g) + NO2(g)

NO is being oxidized, it gains oxygens, therefore it is the reducing agent

O3 is being reducd, it gains electrons, therefore it is the oxidant agent

(d) MnO2(s) + 2 C(s) → Mn(s) + 2 CO(g)

C is being oxidizd, it gains oxygens, therefore it is the reducing agent

Mn is being reduced, it loses oxygens and gains electrons, therefore it is the oxidizing agent
