A Carbon can only form 4 bonds and a Hydrogen can only form 1 bond.
Answer : The correct option is,
Explanation :
- Oxidation reaction : It is defined as the reaction in which a substance looses its electrons. That means, the loss of electrons takes place.
Or we can say that, oxidation reaction occurs when a reactant losses electrons in the reaction.
- Reduction reaction : It is defined as the reaction in which a substance gains electrons. That means, the gain of electrons takes place.
Or we can say that, reduction reaction occurs when a reactant gains electrons in the reaction.
According to the electrochemical series, most likely to be reduced because
Hence, the ion most likely to be reduced is .
Electrons are electrochemically negatively charged particles that move random around the nucleus. They have a relatively small mass compared to Protons and Neutrons. They are found in electron clouds that surround the nucleus and their movement and properties provide for the bonding characteristics of each atom.
