Answer the following questions. Give each as proof of this also examples at.

1. Are metals always a reducing agent?
2. Are metallions always oxidizing agents?

---

Solution:

1. Are metals always a reducing agent?
       Notice that the talk of metals is
       So, for example, B… Me → Me⁺
       Reducing and oxidizing agents
       Mg → Mg²⁺ + 2e^–
       Al → Al³⁺ + 3e^–
2. Are metallions always oxidizing agents?
       Notice that the talk of metallions is
       Oxidants: oxidizing and reducing
       Mg²⁺ + 2e^– → Mg
       Al³⁺ + 3e^– → Al
       Cu²⁺ + 2e^– → Cu
       ABER … Cu⁺ can ([translation unavailable] after [translation unavailable]) to Cu²⁺ oxidated or to Cu reduced are.
