  1. Oxidation-Reduction Topic 9 Review Book

  2. Oxidation Numbers • Oxidation is the loss of electrons; Reduction is the gain of electrons • Oxidation and reduction go together. Whenever a substance loses electrons and another substance gains electrons • Oxidation Numbers are a system that we can use to keep track of electron transfers

  3. GER! LEO says Loss of Electrons = Oxidation Gain of Electrons =Reduction

  4. Rules for Assigning Oxidation Numbers • Free elements are 0 • Ions have the charge indicated • Metals : Group 1 = +1; Group 2= +2 • Halogens in binary compounds are usually -1, in ternary compounds move on and go back to do the algebra • Hydrogen is +1 unless in binary compound with metal, then it is -1 • Oxygen is -2 unless in peroxide when it is -1 or with fluorine when it is +2 • (FIMHHO)

  9. Using Oxidation Numbers • Careful examination of the oxidation numbers of atoms in an equation allows us to determine what is oxidized and what is reduced in an oxidation-reduction reaction

  10. An increase in the oxidation number indicates that an atom has lost electrons and therefore oxidized. A decreasein the oxidation number indicates that an atom has gained electrons and therefore reduced Example Mg + ZnSO4 MgSO4 + Zn Using Oxidation Numbers

  11. Exercise For each of the following reactions find the element oxidized and the element reduced Cl2 + KBr  KCl + Br2 Mg + HNO3 Mg(NO3)2+ NO2 + H2O HNO3 + I2 HIO3 + NO2

  12. Exercise For each of the following reactions find the element oxidized and the element reduced Cl2 + KBr  KCl + Br2 Br increases from –1 to 0 -- oxidized Cl decreases from 0 to –1 -- Reduced K remains unchanged at +1

  13. Exercise For each of the following reactions find the element oxidized and the element reduced Mg + HNO3 Mg(NO3)2+ NO2 + H2O • Mg increases from 0 to +2. It is oxidized • Only N in nitric acid changes from +5 to +4. It is reduced

  14. Exercise For each of the following reactions find the element oxidized and the element reduced HNO3 + I2 HIO3 + NO2 • N is reduced from +5 to +4. It is reduced • I is increased from 0 to +5 It is oxidized • The hydrogen and oxygen remain unchanged.

  15. Balancing Redox Reactions There are several basic steps • Assign oxidation numbers to the species in the reaction • Find the substance oxidized and the substance reduced • Write half reactions for the oxidation and reduction • Balance the atoms that change in the half reaction • Determine the electrons transferred and balance the electrons between the half reactions • Check your work. Make sure that both the atoms and charges balance

  16. Balancing Redox Equations 1 • Assign oxidation numbers to the species in the reaction • Find the substance oxidized and the substance reduced • Write half reactions for the oxidation and reduction • Balance the atoms that change in the half reaction • Determine the electrons transferred and balance the electrons between the half reactions • Check your work. Make sure that both the atoms and charges balance • *It may be helpful to balance the equation before starting the redox process • Zn + HCl  ZnCl2 + H2

  17. Balancing Redox Equations 2 • Assign oxidation numbers to the species in the reaction • Find the substance oxidized and the substance reduced • Write half reactions for the oxidation and reduction • Balance the atoms that change in the half reaction • Determine the electrons transferred and balance the electrons between the half reactions • Check your work. Make sure that both the atoms and charges balance MnO2 + HCl  MnCl2 + Cl2 + H2O

  18. Balance, Assign, ID, write ½ rxns for the following • 1. Mg + O2 MgO • 2. KClO3  KCl + O2 • 3. HCl + O2  H2O + Cl2

  19. Balance the following ionic equations • ____Cr +6 + ____ S  ___ Cr +3 +____ S +4 • ____Sn2+ + ____Hg+ 2  ___Sn+4 + ___Hg +1 • _____Cu + _____Ag+1  ___Cu+2 + ___Ag
