Table of Contents Chapter 20: Oxidation-Reduction 20.1: Oxidation and Reduction 20.2: Balancing Redox Equations 20.3: Half-Reactions Table of Contents Chapter 20: Oxidation-Reduction 20.1: Oxidation and Reduction Oxidation-Reduction: Basic Concepts Electron Transfer and Redox Reactions Oxidation-Reduction: Basic Concepts Electron Transfer and Redox Reactions • A reaction in which electrons are transferred from one atom to another is called an oxidation–reduction reaction. • Also called redox reactions Click box to view movie clip. Oxidation-Reduction: Basic Concepts Electron Transfer and Redox Reactions • Single-replacement and combustion reactions always involve the transfer of electrons from one atom to another. • So do many, but not all, synthesis and decomposition reactions. Oxidation-Reduction: Basic Concepts Electron Transfer and Redox Reactions Oxidation-Reduction: Basic Concepts Changes in oxidation number • The oxidation number of an atom in an ionic compound is the number of electrons lost or gained by the atom when it forms ions. • Oxidation numbers are tools that scientists use in written chemical equations to help them keep track of the movement of electrons in a redox reaction. Oxidation-Reduction: Basic Concepts Rules for determining oxidation numbers 1. All atoms in elemental form have an oxidation number of 0. • This is true for elements that exist as polyatomic molecules such as O2, Cl2, H2, N2, S8. Oxidation-Reduction: Basic Concepts Rules for determining oxidation numbers 2. Each element in a compound gets the number it would have if it were an ion. • Split ionic compounds into known ions. E.g. NH4NO3 becomes NH4+ & NO3− , – 2+ Ca = +2, Br = –1. NH3 N = -3. H = +1. Si = +4. SiCl4 Cl = -1. Oxidation-Reduction: Basic Concepts Rules for determining oxidation numbers 3. Nonmetals usually have negative oxidation numbers. • Hydrogen is +1 when bonded to nonmetals and -1 when bonded to metals. • Double check the oxidation number of any element on the 2nd period and lower Oxidation-Reduction: Basic Concepts Rules for determining oxidation numbers 4. The sum of the oxidations numbers in a neutral compound is zero. (+1) + (-1) = 0 (+2) + 2(-1) = 0 NaCl CaBr2 2(+1) + (+6) + 4(-2) = 0 Na2SO4 Oxidation-Reduction: Basic Concepts Rules for determining oxidation numbers 5. The sum of the oxidation numbers of the atoms in a polyatomic ion is the charge on the ion. (-3) + 4(+1) = +1 NH4+ (+4) + 3(-2) = -2 SO32- Basic Assessment Questions Try it out! Determine the oxidation number of the boldface element in each of these compounds.

Oxidation-Reduction: Basic Concepts How do oxidation and reduction differ? • Reduction is the gain of electrons by atoms of a substance. • Half-reaction: an equation showing either the oxidation or the reduction half of a redox reaction (always includes the electrons) Electrochemistry: Basic Concepts Identify which ½ rxns are oxidation and which are reduction 1. Fe → Fe2+ + 2e2. Te2+ + 2e- → Te oxidation reduction 3. IO4- + 2e- → IO6- reduction 4. Al → Al3+ + 3e- oxidation 5.

Oxidation-Reduction: Basic Concepts How do oxidation and reduction differ? • LEO the lion says GER (LEO GER) • Loss of Electrons is Oxidation • Gain of Electrons is Reduction. • OIL RIG • Oxidation Is Loss • Reduction Is Gain Oxidation-Reduction: Basic Concepts Oxidation Number in Redox Reactions spectator ion Oxidation-Reduction: Basic Concepts Oxidizing and Reducing Agents Oxidized • Loses electrons • Oxidation number increases • Reducing agent: it is the substance that reduces another substance by giving its electrons.

Oxidation-Reduction: Basic Concepts Oxidizing and Reducing Agents • Several oxidizing and reducing agents play significant roles in your daily life. • For example, when you add chlorine bleach to your laundry to whiten clothes, you are using an aqueous solution of sodium hypochlorite (NaClO), an oxidizing agent. Oxidation-Reduction: Basic Concepts Oxidizing and Reducing Agents • Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) can be used as an antiseptic because it oxidizes some of the vital biomolecules of germs, or as an agent to lighten hair because it oxidizes the dark pigment of the hair.
