  1. OXIDATION AND REDUCTION REACTIONS CHAPTER 7

  2. REDOX REACTIONS • Redox reactions: - oxidation and reduction reactions that occurs simultaneously. • Oxidation: 1) addition of oxygen 2) loss of hydrogen 3) loss of electron 4) increase in the oxidation state / oxidation number

  3. Reduction: 1) loss of oxygen 2) addition of hydrogen 3) gain of electrons 4) decrease in the oxidation state / oxidation number

  4. Electron Transfer Reactions • Oxidation reactions: half-reaction that involves loss of electrons • Reduction reactions: half-reaction that involves gain of electrons • Oxidizing agents: substance that accepts electrons (substances that are reduced) • Reducing agents: substances that donates electrons (substances that are oxidized)

What is the oxidizing agent in the reaction? Ag+ is reduced Ag+ is the oxidizing agent

  7. Oxidation number The charge the atom would have in a molecule (or an ionic compound) if electrons were completely transferred. • Free elements (uncombined state) have an oxidation number of zero. Na, Be, K, Pb, H2, O2, P4 = 0 • In monatomic ions, the oxidation number is equal to the charge on the ion. Li+, Li = +1; Fe3+, Fe = +3; O2-, O = -2 • The oxidation number of oxygen isusually –2. In H2O2 and O22- it is –1.

  8. The oxidation number of hydrogen is +1except when it is bonded to metals in binary compounds. In these cases, its oxidation number is –1. • Group IA metals are +1, IIA metals are +2 and fluorine is always –1. 6. The sum of the oxidation numbers of all the atoms in a molecule or ion is equal to the charge on the molecule or ion. 7. Oxidation numbers do not have to be integers. Oxidation number of oxygen in the superoxide ion, O2-, is –½.

  9. The Oxidation Numbers of Elements in their Compounds

  10. Examples: What are the oxidation numbers of all the elements in this folowing compounds or ion? i) HCO3- O = –2 H = +1 3x(–2) + 1 + ? = –1 C = +4

  11. ii) NaIO3 Na = +1 O = -2 3x(-2) + 1 + ? = 0 I = +5 iii) IF7 iv) K2Cr2O7 v) Li2O vi) HNO3

  14. Balancing Redox Equations • Ion electron method

  15. Balancing Redox Equations for Reaction Takes Place in Acidic Solution Following is the guideline for balancing an oxidation-reduction equation in acidic solution by the ion-electron method. Step 1: - Write the two half-reactions that contain the elements being oxidised and reduced using the entire formula of the ion or molecule.

  16. Step 2: - Balance all the elements except oxygen and hydrogen. Step 3: - Balance oxygen using H2O and hydrogen using H+. Step 4: - Balance the charge using electrons. If necessary, multiplying one or both balanced half-reaction by integers to equalize the number of electrons transferred in the two half reactions.

  17. Step 5: - Add the half-reactions and cancel identical species. - Verifying – check to be sure that the elements and charges are balanced.

  18. Example 1: Balance the following equation by the ion-electron method. Cr2O72- + Cl- Cr3+ + Cl2 Solution: Determine the oxidation number of the species involved. 2Oxn(Cr) + 7Oxn(O) = -2 2Oxn(Cr) + 7(-2) = -2 Oxn(Cr) = +6

  19. The oxidation number of Cr is +6 The oxidation number of Cl- is -1 whereas the oxidation number of Cl2 is zero. Step 1:The ionic equation is divided in 2 distinct half-reactions. One representing oxidation and the other representing reduction. Cr2O72- (aq) Cr3+ (aq) ..(1)(reduction) Cl- (aq) Cl2 ..(2)(oxidation)

  20. Step 2 : Balance the atoms in each half- equation separately (except H and O) Cr2O72- (aq) 2Cr3+ (aq) ……(3) 2Cl- (aq) Cl2 ……(4) Step 3 : For reaction in acid medium, add H2O to balance the O atoms and H+ to balance the H atoms. 14H+ + Cr2O72- (aq) 2Cr3+ (aq) + 7H2O …(5) 2Cl- (aq) Cl2 …(6)

  21. Step 4: Balance the charges of each half- reaction by adding electron(s) to either the left or right side of the equation. If the electron(s) appears on the right, the process is an oxidation process. If electron(s) appears on the left, it is a reduction process.

  22. The net charge on the left is +12. The net charge of Cr on the right is +6. • Therefore, we add 6 electrons (-6) to the left so that the net charges on both sides are equal +6 6 e- + 14H+ + Cr2O72- (aq) 2Cr3+ (aq) + 7H2O …(7) • For the 2nd half-equation, the net charges on the left is -2 while the net charge on the right is 0. • Therefore, we add 2 electrons to the right so that the net charges on both sides are equal -2. 2Cl- (aq) Cl2 + 2 e- …(8)

  23. Equalise the number of electrons in both half-equations by multiplying one or two half-equations with appropriate coefficients. • By looking at the 2 half equations, the 2nd half-equation is multiplied by 3 to balance the electrons on both half-reaction. Cr2O72- (aq) + 14H+ + 6 e- 2Cr3+ (aq) + 7H2O …(7) 2Cl- (aq) Cl2 + 2 e- …(8) (equation (8)  3) 6Cl- (aq) 3Cl2 + 6 e- …(9)

  24. Step 5: Then, add the 2 half-reaction equations together and balance the final equation by inspection. The electrons on both sides should be cancelled. Cr2O72- (aq) + 14H+ + 6 e- 2Cr3+ (aq) + 7H2O …(7) 6Cl- (aq) 3Cl2 + 6 e- …(9) (7) + (9) Cr2O72- (aq) + 14H+ + 6Cl- (aq) 2Cr3+ (aq) + 7H2O + 3Cl2
