Question A

The following reactions are oxidation-reduction reactions. Identify the oxidative and reductive half reactions. Identify the oxidizing and reducing agents.

Hg₂²⁺(aq) + Sn²⁺(aq) >>> 2 Hg(l) + Sn⁴⁺(aq)

Which is the correct answer?

		Oxidizing agent - Hg₂²⁺ ^{Reducing agent - Sn²⁺}
		Oxidizing agent - Hg₂²⁺ and Sn²⁺
		^{Reducing agent -} Hg₂²⁺ and Sn²⁺
		Reducing agent - Hg₂²⁺ ^{Oxidizing agent - Sn²⁺}

Question b

The following reactions are oxidation-reduction reactions. Identify the oxidative and reductive half reactions. Identify the oxidizing and reducing agents.

Hg₂²⁺(aq) + H₂S(aq) >>> Hg(l) + HgS(s) + 2 H⁺(aq)

which is the correct answer?

		Oxidizing agent and reducing agent - Hg₂²⁺
		Oxidizing agent and reducing agent - H₂S
		Oxidizing agent - Hg₂²⁺ ^{Reducing agent - H}₂S
		Oxidizing agent - H₂S Reducing agent - Hg2²⁺
