Answer the following questions using the data given below:
1.
| Assertion: | Silver does not change when placed in \(HCl\) solution. |
| Reason: | Silver metal does not show any change. |
2.
| Assertion: | In a reaction \(Zn\)(s) + \(CuSO_4\)(aq) → \(ZnSO_4\)(aq) + \(Cu\)(s); Although Zn is a reductant, it is oxidised by itself. |
| Reason: | In a redox reaction, the oxidant is reduced by accepting electrons, and the reductant is oxidized by losing electrons. |
