2 20.1 The Meaning of Oxidation and Reduction 2 > Copyright © Pearson Education, Inc., or its affiliates. All Rights Reserved. What Are Oxidation and Reduction? What happens to a substance that undergoes oxidation? What happens to a substance that undergoes reduction?

3 3 Electron Transfer Reactions oxidation-reduction or redox reactions are Electron transfer reactions. Redox reactions can result in the generation of an electric current. Therefore, this field of chemistry is often called ELECTROCHEMISTRY.

4 20.1 The Meaning of Oxidation and Reduction 4 > Copyright © Pearson Education, Inc., or its affiliates. All Rights Reserved. Oxygen and Redox When methane (CH 4 ) burns in air, it oxidizes: reacts with oxygen One oxide of carbon is carbon dioxide, CO 2. CH 4 (g) + 2O 2 (g) → CO 2 (g) + 2H 2 O(g)

5 20.1 The Meaning of Oxidation and Reduction 5 > Copyright © Pearson Education, Inc., or its affiliates. All Rights Reserved. Not all oxidation involves burning. metals oxidizes to form compounds such as iron(III) oxide (Fe 2 O 3 ). 4Fe(s) + 3O 2 (g) → 2Fe 2 O 3 (s)

6 20.1 The Meaning of Oxidation and Reduction 6 > Copyright © Pearson Education, Inc., or its affiliates. All Rights Reserved. Common liquid household bleach contains sodium hypochlorite (NaClO), a substance that releases oxygen, which oxidizes stains to a colorless form. Hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2 ) also releases oxygen when it decomposes. It is both a bleach and a mild antiseptic that kills bacteria by oxidizing them.

7 20.1 The Meaning of Oxidation and Reduction 7 > Copyright © Pearson Education, Inc., or its affiliates. All Rights Reserved. A substance that undergoes oxidation gains oxygen. A substance that undergoes reduction loses oxygen. Reactions that involve the processes of oxidation and reduction are called oxidation-reduction reactions. Oxidation-reduction reactions are also known as redox reactions. Original definition

8 20.1 The Meaning of Oxidation and Reduction 8 > Copyright © Pearson Education, Inc., or its affiliates. All Rights Reserved. What Are Oxidation and Reduction? MODERN REDOX DEFINITION Oxidation is now defined to mean complete or partial loss of electrons Reduction is now defined to mean complete or partial gain of electrons Oxidation Loss of electrons Reduction Gain of electrons

9 20.1 The Meaning of Oxidation and Reduction 9 > Copyright © Pearson Education, Inc., or its affiliates. All Rights Reserved. What Are Oxidation and Reduction? Redox Reactions During a reaction between a metal and a nonmetal, electrons are transferred from atoms of the metal to atoms of the nonmetal. Mg(s) + S(s) MgS(s) heat metal nonmetal lose gain IONIC

10 10 In all reactions if something has been oxidized then something has also been reduced REDOX REACTIONS Cu(s) + 2 Ag + (aq)  Cu 2+ (aq) + 2 Ag(s)

11 11 REDOX Reactions: Metals Lose electrons HNO 3 is the reduced 2 K + 2 H 2 O --> 2 KOH + H 2 Metals (K) are oxidized Metals (Cu) are “loser”: oxidized Cu + HNO 3 --> Cu 2+ + NO 2 hydrogen is reduced

12 12 Examples of Redox Reactions Metal + acid Zn + HCl Zn = loses electrons H + = gains electrons Cl- = spectator

13 13 Examples of Redox Reactions Metal + halogen 2 Al + 3 Br 2 ---> 2AlBr 3

15 20.2 Oxidation Numbers > 15 Copyright © Pearson Education, Inc., or its affiliates. All Rights Reserved. Assigning Oxidation Numbers oxidation numbers How do we determine which element has gained and which has lost electrons? An oxidation number is a positive or negative number assigned to an atom to indicate its degree of oxidation or reduction.

An element has ox. no. = 0. Zn O 2 I 2 S 8 2. In simple ions, ox. no. = charge on ion. -1 for Cl - +2 for Mg 2+

18 18 OXIDATION NUMBERS 3. In a compound: O has ox. no. = -2 (except in peroxides: in H 2 O 2, O = -1) 4. In a Molecule: Ox. no. of H = +1 (except when H is associated with a metal as in NaH where it is -1) 5. Algebraic sum of oxidation numbers = 0 for a compound = overall charge for an ion

This figure illustrates a redox reaction that shows what occurs when a shiny iron nail is dipped into a solution of copper(II) sulfate. The iron reduces Cu 2+ ions in solution and is simultaneously oxidized to Fe 2+. The iron becomes coated with metallic copper. Cu 2+ SO 4 + Fe → Fe 2+ SO 4 + Cu

31 20.3 Describing Redox Equations > 31 Copyright © Pearson Education, Inc., or its affiliates. All Rights Reserved. All chemical reactions can be assigned to one of two classes. One class of chemical reactions is oxidation-reduction (redox) reactions, in which electrons are transferred from one reacting species to another. The other class includes all other reactions, in which no electron transfer occurs.

37 20.2 Oxidation Numbers > 37 Copyright © Pearson Education, Inc., or its affiliates. All Rights Reserved. Oxidation-Number Changes in Chemical Reactions You can define oxidation and reduction in terms of a change in oxidation number. An increase in the oxidation number of an atom or ion indicates oxidation. A decrease in the oxidation number of an atom or ion indicates reduction.
