“Oxidation-Reduction Reactions” Redox Reactions LEO SAYS GER
Section 15.1 • OBJECTIVES • Define oxidation and reduction in terms of the loss or gain of oxygen, and the loss or gain of electrons. • State the characteristics of a redox reaction and identify the oxidizing agent and reducing agent.
LEO SAYS GER • Reduction • Reduction occurs when a substance gains electrons. • GER • Gain of Electrons is Reduction • Oxidation • Oxidation occurs when a substance loses electrons. • LEO • Loss of Electrons is Oxidation
Redox example • LEO • Loss of electrons is oxidation Zn Zn2+ + 2e- • GER • Gain of electrons is reduction Cu2+ + 2e- Cu Oxidation Reduction
Classify the following reaction:S + 2e- S2- • Reduction • Oxidation • Not Sure
Classify the following reaction:Li Li+ + e- • Reduction • Oxidation • Not Sure
Classify the following reaction:2O2- 4e- + O2 • Reduction • Oxidation • Not Sure
Redox Reactions • Redox Reactions are chemical reactions in which one substance is reduced and undergoes reduction while another substance simultaneously is oxidized and undergoes oxidation.
Zn(s) + CuSO4 (aq) Cu(s) + ZnSO4(aq) Zn + Cu2+ + SO42-Zn2+ + Cu+ SO42- • LEO Zn Zn2+ + 2e- • GER Cu2+ + 2e- Cu Oxidation Reduction
