Redox Reaction • Corrosion of a metal battery terminal iron rusting metal Oxygen, acid
Metal Corrosion • metal loses electron forms a cation = metal is oxidized AND another reactant gains electrons = is reduced
Oxidation-Reduction Reactions • An oxidationoccurs when an atom or ion loses electrons. • A reduction occurs when an atom or ion gains electrons. • One cannot occur without the other.
Redox Reactions • Oxidation-Reduction Reactions (Redox Reactions) • reactions that involve the transfer of electrons between two reactants • an element in one reactant is oxidized while an element in another reactant is reduced Mg (s) + 2 H+ (aq) Mg2+ (aq) + H2 (g) oxidized reduced
Redox Reactions • Oxidation: • the loss of electrons • chemical species becomes more positively charged • the gain of oxygen • the loss of hydrogen
Redox Reactions • Reduction: • the gain of electrons • the chemical species becomes more negatively charged • the gain of hydrogen • the loss of oxygen
Redox Reactions • LEO: • Lose Electrons Oxidation • GER: • Gain Electrons Reduction GER LEO LEO says GER
Redox Reactions • Oil : • OxidationInvolves Lossof e- • Rig : • ReductionInvolves Gainof e- Oil Rig
Redox Reactions • Electrons are not explicitly shown in chemical equations. • Oxidation Numbers are used to keep track of electrons gained and lost during redox reactions. • Oxidation number • a hypothetical number assigned to an individual atom present in a compound using a set of rules. • May be positive, negative, or zero
Rules for Oxidation Numbers • Oxidation numbers are always reported for individual atoms or ions not groups of atoms or ions!!!!!!!!!!! • For an atom in its elemental form, the oxidation number is always zero. • H2: oxidation # = 0 for each H atom • Cu: oxidation number = 0 • Cl2: oxidation # = 0 for each Cl atom
Rules for Oxidation Numbers • For any monoatomic ion: oxidation # = charge on ion • K+ oxidation # = +1 • Cl- oxidation # = -1 • S2- oxidation # = -2
Rules for Oxidation Numbers • Group 1A Metal Cations: Always +1 • Group 2A Metal Cations: Always +2 • Hydrogen (H) +1 when bonded to nonmetals -1 when bonded to metals
Rules for Oxidation Numbers • Oxygen (O) -1 in peroxides (O22-) -2 in all other compounds • Fluorine (F) always -1
Rules for Oxidation Numbers • The sum of the oxidation numbers of all atoms in any chemical species (ion or neutral compound) is equal to the charge on that chemical species H2O: MgCl2: MnO4-: • 1 + 1 + (-2) = 0 2 + (-1) + (-1) = 0 • 7 + (-2) + (-2) + (-2) + (-2) = -1
Oxidation Numbers • For many compounds, you will be able to directly apply the rules to determine the oxidation number of all atoms except for one. • Use the last two rules to determine the oxidation number of that last element.
Practice determining oxidation numbers Example: Determine the oxidation state of all elements in SO3. Is it elemental? No Are any monoatomic ions present? No Which elements have rules? O = -2 Set up an equation to find the remaining oxidation number. S + 3(-2) = 0 S = +6
Oxidation Numbers Example: Determine the oxidation number of Mn and O in MnO4-. Is it elemental? No Are any monoatomic ions present? No Which elements have rules? O = -2 Set up an equation to find the remaining oxidation number. Mn + 4(-2) = -1 so Mn = +7
Oxidation Numbers Example: Determine the oxidation state of all elements in NaNO3 Is it elemental? No Are any monoatomic ions present? Na+ Which elements have rules? Na = +1, O = -2 Set up an equation to find the remaining oxidation number. 1 + N + 3(-2) = 0 N = +5
Practice • Determine the oxidation number of P in HPO42-. • Determine the oxidation state of all elements in Cr2O72-. • Determine the oxidation state of Sn in SnBr4.
Redox Reactions • There are many different kinds of redox reactions. • Combustion CH4 (g) + 2 O2 (g) CO2 (g) + 2 H2O (g) • Oxidation of Metals by Acids or Metal Salts Cu (s) + H2SO4 (aq) CuSO4 (aq) + H2 (g)
Redox ReactionsOxidation of Metals by Acids or Metal Salts • The reaction between a metal and an acid or between a metal and a metal salt is called a displacementreaction. • a reaction in which an element reacts with a compound and displaces an element from that compound A + BXAX +B
Redox ReactionsOxidation of Metals by Acids or Metal Salts Examples: Mg(s) + 2HCl (aq) MgCl2 (aq) + H2(g) Zn(s) + 2 HBr (aq) ZnBr2(aq) + H2(g) Mn (s) + Pb(NO3)2 (aq) Mn(NO3)2 (aq) + Pb (s)
Redox ReactionsOxidation of Metals by Acids or Metal Salts • How do you know if a redox reaction has occurred? • You must examine the oxidation number of each of the elements present in the reactants and products. • If the oxidation number changes, then a redox reaction has occurred.
Redox ReactionsOxidation of Metals by Acids or Metal Salts • When oxidation occurs: • Electrons are lost • Oxidation number increases • When reduction occurs: • Electrons are gained • Oxidation number is reduced (decreases) e- e-

Redox ReactionsOxidation of Metals by Acids or Metal Salts • Oxidizing agent: • The reactant that causes another reactant to be oxidized • The reactant that contains the element that was reduced • Reducing agent: • The reactant that causes another reactant to be reduced • The reactant that contains the element that was oxidized.

Redox ReactionsOxidation of Metals by Acids or Metal Salts • Based on the previous equation, we wouldn’t want to store a solution of Ni(NO3)3 in an aluminum container. • The aluminum container would react and dissolve!!! • Metals differ in the ease with which they are oxidized. • Al(s) is oxidized by Ni(NO3)3 (aq) • Ag(s) is NOT oxidized by Ni(NO3)3 (aq)
Redox ReactionsOxidation of Metals by Acids or Metal Salts • Activity series: • A list of metals arranged in order of decreasing ease of oxidation • Used to predict whether a metal will react with an acid or with a metal salt • See Table 4.5 • Any metal on the list can be oxidized by, i.e. will lose electrons to, the ions of a metal below it.
