Discussion 1. Zn0 (s)+ Cu2+S6+O42-(aq) →Cu0(s) + Zn2+S6+O42-(aq) Zn0(s) → Zn2+(aq) + 2e- Cu2+(aq) + 2e- → Cu0(s) Zn0(s) + Cu2+(aq) → Zn2+(aq) + Cu0(s) Oxidant (oxidizing agent) is the element which reduces in experiment. Consequently, it induces second element to be oxidized. 2. In the experiment #3, zinc electrode acts as anode, where the oxidation processes occur, while iron half-cell acts as cathode, where the reduction processes appear. In the experiment #4, iron is visa verse reducing agent that evicts electrons to copper half-cell through the circuit. The reason is that the iron has higher reduction potential, i.e. the ability to gain electrons, comparing to the zinc, but lower in comparison to the copper. 3. The goal of the 5th
