Question
Which method is used to make fake gold coins?
Additive Plating:
A plating reaction where metal cations are reduced by an electron donor in solution. The reduced cations coat the surface of an object.
OR
Displacement Plating
A plating reaction is where metal cations are reduced by metals on the surface of an object. The reduced metal cations become neutral atoms and coat the object, replacing the oxidized metal atoms that become metal cations.

- Identify whether or not each of the following reactions is a redox reaction. To determine whether or not a reaction is a redox reaction, figure out the oxidation number of each atom. If the oxidation numbers do not change from one side to another, then it is not a redox reaction. Write the oxidation number of each atom above it on both the reactant and product side. Write the oxidation number for only one atom. For example, the oxidation number of each Br in Br2 is zero, so write a zero above Br2. H2O + H2O → H3O+ + OH- Cu + S → CuS 2 NOBr → N2 + O2 + Br2 CH3CH2CH3 + 5 O2 → 3 CO2 + 4 H2O Ca(NO3)2 + Na2SO4 → 2 NaNO3 + CaSO4 Provide a definition for each of the four types of redox reactions.

This principle is used in the working of a voltaic cell. Voltaic cells, or electrochemical cells, make use of the electrons that are transferred from the species that releases electrons and undergoes oxidation to the species that accepts electrons and undergoes reduction. If it is possible by any means to separate the oxidation reaction and the reduction reaction and then connect them externally so that the electrons flow from one compartment to the other, you can construct an electrochemical cell.

- Choose all of the statements from below which are true about oxidation and reduction. Ooxidation and reduction are opposite processes with respect to bookkeeping electrons. O Oxidation is what happens when an element in a substance increases its oxidation number. Electrons appear on the right side of an oxidation half reaction. An oxidant is an oxidizing agent, which becomes reduced during the course of a redox reaction. O Reduction is what happens when an element in a substance decreases its oxidation number. Electrons appear on the left side of a reduction half reaction. A reductant is an reducing agent, which becomes oxidized during the course of a redox reaction. Karrow_forward1.
