Question 111:
Based on the title of this article, we can make an educated guess
about the first part of this question. Yes, this is probably a redox
reaction, but how do we know that for sure? We need to show
there is an electron transfer occurring, and we can do that by
checking if any oxidation numbers change from the reactants to
the products.
Question 222:
Carbon being oxidized because it is losing electrons as the
oxidation number increases from 000 to +4+4plus, 4.
Iron is being reduced because it is gaining electronswhen the
oxidation number decreases from +3+3plus, 3 to 000.
Question 333:
The reducing agent is the reactant that is being oxidized (and thus
causing something else to be reduced), so \text C(s)C(s)C, left
parenthesis, s, right parenthesisis the reducing agent.
[I'm still confused about reducing agents!]
Question 444:
The oxidizing agent is reactant that is being reduced (and thus
causing something else to be oxidized), so \text{Fe}_2 \text
O_3(s)Fe2O3(s)F, e, start subscript, 2, end subscript, O, start
subscript, 3, end subscript, left parenthesis, s, right parenthesis is
the oxidizing agent.
Change of odor.
Change of color (for example, silver to reddish-brown when iron rusts).
Change in temperature or energy, such as the production (exothermic) or loss
(endothermic) of heat.
Change of composition - paper turning to ash when burned.
Light and/or heat given off.
Formation of gases, often appearing as bubbles in liquids.
Formation of a precipitate (insoluble particles).
The decomposition of organic matter (for example, rotting food).
The change is difficult or impossible to reverse.
