Oxidation-reduction reactions (often called "redox" for short) are reactions that involve the transfer of electrons from one species to another. oxidation states, or oxidation numbers, allow chemists to keep track of these electron transfers. in general, one element will lose electrons (oxidation), with the result that it will increase in oxidation number, and another element will gain electrons (reduction), thereby decreasing in oxidation number. the species that is oxidized is called the reducing agent or reductant. the species that is reduced is called the oxidizing agent or oxidant. to sum up: oxidation = increase in oxidation state = loss of electrons = reducing agent reduction = decrease in oxidation state = gain of electrons = oxidizing agent part a which element is oxidized in this reaction? fe2o3+3co→2fe+3co2 enter the elemental symbol. view available hint(s) is oxidized part b which element is reduced in this reaction? 2hcl+2kmno4+3h2c2o4→6co2+2mno2+2kcl+4h2o enter the elemental symbol. view available hint(s) is reduced

Many reactions take place in aqueous solution. when potential reactants are mixed, a reaction will occur if there is some driving force that favors the formation of products. it is often convenient to categorize reactions in terms of these driving forces: precipitate formation, in which an insoluble solid is formed, weak electrolyte formation, as in a neutralization reaction involving water, or transfer of electrons, as in a redox reaction. these reactions can be represented by full molecular equations, which contain all species in the reaction mixture, or by net ionic equations, which show only the species that actually undergo a change. the latter does not contain the spectator ions, which do not undergo a net change or do not take part in the reaction. part a when the following two solutions are mixed: k2co3(aq)+fe(no3)3(aq) the mixture contains the ions listed below. sort these species into spectator ions and ions that react. drag the appropriate items to their respective bins. view available hint(s) spectator ions ions that react part b what is the correct net ionic equation, including all coefficients, charges, and phases, for the following set of reactants? assume that the contribution of protons from h2so4 is near 100 %.ba(oh)2(aq)+h2so4(aq)→ express your answer as a chemical equation. view available hint(s) nothing provide feedback
