In \( \ce{2Tl + I2 -> 2TlI} \), which species undergoes oxidation?

Tl (0) becomes +1 in \( \ce{TlI} \), losing electrons, while I (0 to -1) is reduced.

\( \ce{Tl} \)
\( \ce{I2} \)

In the reaction \( \ce{2MnO2 + 4KOH + O2 -> 2K2MnO4 + 2H2O} \), how many electrons are transferred per Mn atom?

Mn (+4 in \( \ce{MnO2} \)) becomes +6 in \( \ce{K2MnO4} \). Change = +6 - (+4) = 2 electrons per Mn.
