Step 1
First, we need to write the balanced chemical equation for the reaction between magnesium and copper (II) sulfate: Mg(s) + CuSOā(aq) ā MgSOā(aq) + Cu(s) Now, we need to write the oxidation and reduction half-reactions: Oxidation half-reaction: Mg(s) ā MgĀ²āŗ(aq) + Show moreā¦

Write and balance the molecular and net ionic equations for the single displacement reaction between magnesium and aluminum bromide. In this reaction, magnesium gains electrons and gets oxidized, while aluminum is the reducing agent. Mg + AlBr3 -> MgBr2 + Al Mg + 2AlBr3 -> 2Al + 3MgBr2
