OXIDATION-REDUCTION REACTION: Select one exercise, Answer the question, and show procedure
1. Select the correct option. An example of an Oxidation reaction is:
(a) Water mixed with orange juice
(b) Solid Magnesium reacting with copper sulphate in solution
(c) Solid silver reacting with potassium carbonate
(d) Water mixed with salt

*Write the chemical equation of your answer, balance the charges, and show the half-reactions. Then, Identify the
substances that are oxidized and reduced, and indicate which is the oxidizing agent and which is the reducing agent.
 2. A rechargeable “dry cell” nickel-cadmium (nicad) battery, uses the following redox reaction to generate electricity
in battery devices:

Cd(s) + NiO(s) + 2 H2O(l) → Cd(OH)2(s) + Ni(OH)2(s)

Balance the charges and show the half-reactions. Then, Identify the substances that are oxidized and reduced
and indicate which is the oxidizing agent and which is the reducing agent.

NOMENCLATURE: Naming Riddle

A ghost may be haunting the chemistry storage room in the lab! Certain chemicals were left out in a pattern, seeming
to spell out a message. A key, which matched letters to names, was also found written in invisible ink. It has been
copied for you below.

PART 1: You must match the formulas of the chemicals to their names to determine the secret message!

Key:

A Hydrogen Sulphate I Nickel (II) oxide R Monoarsenic tribromide
