1 Oxidation-Reduction Dr. Ron Rusay Balancing Oxidation-Reduction Reactions

2 Oxidation-Reduction  Oxidation is the loss of electrons.  Reduction is the gain of electrons.  The reactions occur together. One does not occur without the other.  The terms are used relative to the change in the oxidation state or oxidation number of the reactant(s).

11 ANSWER 2 – 2 O 2 B)NO Oxygen almost always has an oxidation state of 2 when part of a compound. The exception is when it is part of a peroxide. For example, hydrogen peroxide H. Then it has an oxidation state of –1.

16 Reactivity Tables (usually reducing) show relative reactivities: In the examples from the previous slide, the acid solution (H + ) will react with anything below it in the Table but not above. Nickel and Zinc, ….but not Copper.

17 Select all redox reactions by looking for a change in oxidation number as reactants are converted to products. I) Ca + 2 H 2 O → Ca(OH) 2 + H 2 II) CaO + H 2 O → Ca(OH) 2 III) Ca(OH) 2 + H 3 PO 4 → Ca 3 (PO 4 ) 2 + H 2 O IV) Cl 2 + 2 KBr → Br 2 + 2 KCl A) I and II B) II and IIIC) I and IVD) III and IVQUESTION

19 QUESTION

20 ANSWER C) 2 If an element is a reactant, this usually a redox reaction, since an element usually becomes part of a compound during a chemical reaction. Cu + 2AgNO 3  2Ag + Cu(NO 3 ) 2 N 2 + 3H 2  2NH 3

21 Cu 2+  Cu (s) H 2 (g)  2 H + 0 0 +2 e- - 2 e- Use oxidation numbers to determine what is oxidized and what is reduced. Number of electrons gained must equal the number of electrons lost. - 2 e- +2 e- Refer to Balancing Oxidation-Reduction Reactions

22 QUESTION

23 ANSWER B)the oxidizing agent. Metals lose electrons, so they are oxidized, making the other reactant an oxidizing agent.

24 Balancing Redox Equations in acidic solutions 1) Determine the oxidation numbers of atoms in both reactants and products. 2) Identify and select out those which change oxidation number (“redox” atoms) into separate “half reactions”. 3) Balance the “redox” atoms and charges (electron gain and loss must equal!). 4) In acidic reactions balance oxygen with water then hydrogen from water with acid proton(s).
