Question

Which redox reaction would most likely occur if zinc and copper metal were
added to a solution that contained zinc and copper ions?
Click for a reduction potential chart
A. Cu + Zn → Cu2+ + Zn2+
B. Cu + Zn2+
Cu2+ + Zn
C. Cu2+ + Zn → Cu + Zn2+
D. Cu2+ + Zn2+ → Cu + Zn

Answer 1

Answer:

C

Explanation:

b/c when copper and zinc metal are addedto solution,then the solution will be consider under redox reaction

Answer 2

$Cu^{2+} + Zn$ → $Cu + Zn^{2+}$ is the redox reaction. Hence, option C is correct.

What is Redox Reaction?

A chemical reaction taking place between an oxidizing substance and a reducing substance.

The oxidizing substance is used to lose electrons in the reaction, and the reducing substance is used to gain electrons.

On the reduction potential chart, zinc is a stronger oxidizing agent than, Copper (Cu), which is a reducing agent as compared to silver

The redox reaction most likely occurs if silver and copper metal were added to a solution that contained silver and copper ions is ;

$Cu^{2+} + Zn$ → $Cu + Zn^{2+}$
