Question

Reaction A: Cu(s) + 4 HNO$_3$(aq) ? Cu(NO$_3$)$_2$(aq) + 2 NO$_2$(g) + 2 H$_2$O(l) 4. Reaction A is classified as a reduction-oxidation (redox) reaction. In a redox reaction, precisely 2 of the elements involved change their charge or oxidation state. In this reaction, those elements are \"Cu\" and \"N\". Complete the following sentences. a. Compare the Cu(s) and Cu(NO$_3$)$_2$(aq). The charge on \"Cu\" changed from 0 to 2. b. Compare the HNO$_3$(aq) and NO$_2$(g). The charge on \"N\" changed from +5 to

Step 1

In Cu(s), the oxidation state of Cu is 0 since it is in its elemental form. In Cu(NO3)2(aq), the oxidation state of Cu is +2 since it is combined with two nitrate ions, each with an oxidation state of -1. Show more…
