Question
Identify the atoms that are oxidized and reduced, the change in oxidation state for each, and the oxidizing and reducing agents in each of the following equations: Note, for the change in oxidation state, give the total change for that element. E.g. Br2 2Br; each bromine atom gains 1 electron (ox state = 0 → ox state = -1), for a %3D total gain of 2 electrons (total change of -2) (a) Mg(s) + NiCl2(aq) → MgCl2(aq) + Ni(s) atom oxidized: [Select] its change in oxidation state: [ Select ] atom reduced: Mg , its change in oxidation state: [ Select ] oxidizing agent: [ Select ] reducing agent: [ Select ]
