(a) In the following reactions, name the reactants, which undergo oxidation and reduction: (i) CuO(S)+H_(2)(g)rarrCu(S)+H_(2)O(g) (ii) CuO(S)+ZnO(S)+Cu(S) (b) State one industrial application of reduction.

Answer»

SOLUTION :(a) (i) The reactants copper OXIDE and hydrogen. Copper oxide undergoes reduction and hydrogen `(H_(2))` undergoes oxidation.
(II) The reactants are copper oxide and zinc . Zincundergoes oxidation and copper oxide undergoes reduction.
(b) Calcium carbonate is REDUCED in industries to GET `CaO and CO_(2)`.
