Answer :

(a) Reactant Mg is oxidized and reactant Fe is reduced.

(b) Reactant C is oxidized and reactant Cu is reduced.

Explanation :

As we know that a reactant is either reduced or oxidized in a chemical reaction.

Part (a):

The given word equation of chemical reaction is:

Magnesium metal + Aqueous iron (III) sulphate → Iron metal + Aqueous magnesium sulphate

The balanced chemical equation of this word equation will be:

In this reaction, the oxidation state of reactant Mg changes from (0) to (+2) that shows oxidation due to increase in oxidation state. So, we can say that Mg is oxidized.

And, the oxidation state of reactant Fe changes from (+3) to (0) that shows reduction due to decrease in oxidation state. So, we can say that Fe is reduced.

Part (b):

The given word equation of chemical reaction is:

Solid carbon + Solid copper oxide → Carbon dioxide gas + Copper metal

The balanced chemical equation of this word equation will be:

In this reaction, the oxidation state of reactant C (carbon) changes from (0) to (+4) that shows oxidation due to increase in oxidation state. So, we can say that C is oxidized.

And, the oxidation state of reactant Cu changes from (+2) to (0) that shows reduction due to decrease in oxidation state. So, we can say that Cu is reduced.

a). in this case, dh> 0 and sd> 0. if t becomes larger, the term "-tds" will become more negative. at some point, it is possible that -dts will be more negative than the dh is positive, and the reaction will become spontaneous. this is probably the correct answer, but you should look at all of the other possibilities and make sure of that.
