Question

Justify that the reaction:
2Cu20(s) + Cu,S(s) — 6Cu(s) + SO2(g)
is a redox reaction. Identify the species
oxidised/reduced, which acts as an
oxidant and which acts as a reductant.​

Answer 1

Ok so here Cu2O gets reduced and so it is the Oxidizing agent whereas Cu2S gets oxidized and so is the reducing agent

Answer 2

Answer:

Species oxidized =SO2

Species reduced =Cu

oxidant=Cu2O

reductant=CuS
