If it is not, select No and leave the following boxes blank. Express your answers as a chemical formulas. Omit states-of-matter O La(s) +3Ag+ (aq) 3 Ag(s) + La3+ (aq) Redox? Oxidizing Agent Reducing Agent Substance Oxidized Substance Reduced HI(g) + NH3 (g)-> NH41(s) Redox? Oxidizing Agent Reducing Agent Substance Oxidized Substance Reduced

Explanation / Answer

(a) La(s) + 3Ag+(aq) ---> 3Ag(s) + La3+(aq)

Redox - Yes

La - reducing agent. It gets oxidized.

Ag+ - Oxidizing agent. It gets reduced

(b) Redox - No.

(c) Redox - No.

(d) SiBr4(l) + 2Ba(s) ---> 2BaBr2(s) + Si(s)

Redox - Yes

SiBr4 - Oxidizing agent. It gets reduced.

Ba - Reducing agent. It gets oxidized.

(e) Redox - No.
