Answer:

The tea (solution) is hot, this means that the solution molecules are moving in a fast rate. This results in gaps being present between the solution molecules, when the sugar (solute) is added its molecules can fit in between the gaps making its way down the containers with ease.
Solubility is directly proportional to temperature, thus an increase in temperature (of the solution) will result in an increase in solubility (of the solute).

Answer: I2 is the Oxidant; while the 2S2O3(-2) is the reductant.

Explanation:

An Oxidant is any substance that oxidizes, or receives electrons from, another; in so doing, it becomes reduced in oxidation number.

A Reductant thus exactly the opposite.

Note that the equation provided shows that Iodine (I2) received an electron to become NEGATIVELY CHARGED:

I2 --> 2I-.

The oxidation number reduced from 0 to -1.

In contrast, the oxidation number of 2S2O3(-2) increases from -4 to -2.

Thus, I2 is the Oxidant; while the 2S2O3(-2) is the reductant.
