What element behaves as the oxidizing agent in the following equation and what element behaves as the reducing agent?
The elements that behave as an oxidizing agent and a reducing agent in the given equation.
Answer to Problem 12TE
The tin ions
Explanation of Solution
The electrons get donated in any oxidation reaction while in reduction reaction the electrons get accepted.
The oxidizing agent basically oxidizes another reactant/speciesand getting gets itself reduced. The reducing agent basically reduces another reactant/species while itself gets oxidized.
The given equation is shown below,
The silver atoms,
The tin ions,
Conclusion:
Therefore, the tin ions
