Oxidation Reduction Reaction (Redox): A reaction in which electrons are transferred from one substance to another.
4
Oxidation cannot occur without reduction Definition of Oxidized: 1. Losing of electrons (LEO) 2. Increasing the ox. number, ie: 0 to +1 -2 to -1 3. Gaining oxygen Definition of Reduced: 1. Gaining of electrons (GER) 2. Reducing the ox. number, ie: -1 to -2 1 to 0 3. Losing oxygen
5
2Mg + O 2 2MgO Mg atom transfers two electrons to each oxygen atom. As a result 2 Mg atoms become Mg 2+ and two oxygen atoms become O 2- Mg loses two electrons O gains two electrons
6
2Mg + O 2 2MgO Mg atom transfers two electrons to each oxygen atom. As a result 2 Mg atoms become Mg 2+ and two oxygen atoms become O 2- Mg loses two electrons O gains two electrons
7
Can oxidation occur without reduction? What are the three definitions of oxidation? What are the three definitions of reduction? What is a way to remember oxidation/reduction in terms of transfer of electrons? Does the oxidation number increase or decrease when there is oxidation? Does the oxidation number increase or decrease when there is reduction?
8
When an electron is lost (An electron is found on the product side) there is oxidation ◦ X 0 X +1 + e - When an electron is gained (An electron is found on the reactant side) there is reduction ◦ e - +Y +1 Y 0

Whatever is oxidized is called the reducing agent Whatever is reduced is called the oxidizing agent

12
What is a reducing agent? What is a oxidizing agent? Are metals generally oxidized or reduced? Are nonmetals generally oxidized or reduced?
13
Redox Rules to Learn For Ionic and Covalent bonds
14
Definition: Electonegativity is the atom’s ability to attract electrons. Fluorine is the most electronegative element
15
Increase EN More protons to attract electrons Decrease EN electrons get further away from protons
16
Oxidation number of an uncombined atom = zero (no compounds or ions) i.e.Mg, H 2, Na ie. All H 2 O 2 N 2 Cl 2 Br 2 I 2 F 2 ’s ox. # are zero 0 0 0 0000000
17
Oxidation number of a monatomic ion = charge of the ion i.e.Mg 2+, O 2-, Al 3+, Br - +2 +3-2
18
The sum of the oxidation numbers of a neutral compound = 0 i.e.H 2 OCO 2 CO NaCl +1 2(+1) -2 - 2 = 0 -2 2(-2) +4 4 + = 0 -2+2 =0 +1 =0
19
The oxidation number for H is +1 Exception: when bonded to a less electronegative element (metal), then it is -1. i.e.LiH, NaH, MgH 2 Exception i.e.HF, HCl +1 +1 +2 +1 +1
20
Oxygen’s oxidation number is -2, in a compound Two exceptions: peroxides and fluorine in H 2 O 2 with OF 2 +1 2(+1)+ 2( ?) = 0 ? = -1 where O is -1 2(-1) ? + = 0 +2 where O is +2 fluorine (more electronegative)
21
Oxidation number of polyatomic compound = zero polyatomic ion = the charge of the ion i.e. compounds: NH 3 SiCl 4 K 3 PO 4 i.e. ions: NH 4 + CO 3 2- SO 4 2- NO 3 - +1 3(+1) -3 -3 + = 0 +1 4(1) -3 -3+ = +1
22
Oxidation numbers for metals in: Group 1A metal compound +1 2A metal compound +2 3A Aluminum compound +3 i.e. NaClMgSO 4 AlPO 4 +1 = 0 +2 +3 = 0 -2 +2 + ? + 4(-2) +6 = 0
23
The most electronegative element fluorine ALWAYS has an oxidation number of -1 when it is bonded to another element. i.e.HF
24
Assign oxidation numbers to each element 1. Cl 2 2. Cl- 3. MgCl 2 4. NaH 5. HCl 6. K 3 PO 4 7. CaSO 4 8. KF
25
If oxidation number goes up it is oxidized. If oxidation number goes down it is reduced.
26
Balance the reactions, write the oxidation numbers for each atom and write the oxidizing and reducing agents. Ex1HCl + Zn ZnCl 2 + H 2 2 +1 0 0 2(-1) +2 +2 + =0 Loss of electron oxidation (LEO) Gain of electron reduction (GER) Oxidizing agent Reducing agent
27
Ex2 Mg + N 2 Mg 3 N 2 Ex3H 2 S + Cl 2 HCl + S Ex4Fe+ O 2 Fe 2 O 3
28
There are three definitions of oxidation and reduction: OxidationReduction 1. 2. 3. Losing of electrons (LEO) Gaining oxygen Increasing oxidation # Losing oxygen Decreasing oxidation # Gaining of electrons (GER)
