Which half-reaction correctly represents reduction?
A) Ag -> Ag+ + e–
B) F2 -> 2 F– + 2e–
C) Au3+ + 3e– -> Au
D) Fe2+ + e– -> Fe3+

Respuesta :

Answer choice C. Reduction has its electrons as a reactant.

The half-reaction that is correctly represents reduction is Au₃⁺ + 3e– -> Au. The correct option is C.

What is half-reactions?

The half-reaction is an oxidation and reduction reaction of a redox reaction. It can be either oxidation or reduction. The half-reaction occurs due to change in oxidation state of a reactant.

An example is Zn Cu galvanic cell.

Thus, the correct option is C) Au3+ + 3e– -> Au.
