Redox equations L.O.: Balance redox equations using oxidations numbers Deduce overall equations from half equations. In pairs recap rules for finding oxidation states and for balancing redox equations. BALANCING REDOX HALF EQUATIONS 1 2 3 4 Work out formulae of the species before and after the change; balance if required Work out oxidation state of the element before and after the change Add electrons to one side of the equation so that the oxidation states balance If the charges on the species (ions and electrons) on either side of the equation do not balance then add sufficient H+ ions to one of the sides to balance the charges 5 If equation still doesn’t balance, add sufficient water molecules to one side BALANCING REDOX HALF EQUATIONS 1 2 3 4 Work out formulae of the species before and after the change; balance if required Work out oxidation state of the element before and after the change Add electrons to one side of the equation so that the oxidation states balance If the charges on the species (ions and electrons) on either side of the equation do not balance then add sufficient H+ ions to one of the sides to balance the charges 5 If equation still doesn’t balance, add sufficient water molecules to one side Example 1 Step 1 Step 2 Step 3 Iron(II) being oxidised to iron(III) Fe2+ ——> Fe3+ +2 +3 Fe2+ ——> Fe3+ + e¯ now balanced An electron (charge -1) is added to the RHS of the equation... this balances the oxidation state change i.e. (+2) ——> (+3) + (-1) As everything balances, there is no need to proceed to Steps 4 and 5 BALANCING REDOX HALF EQUATIONS 1 2 3 4 Work out formulae of the species before and after the change; balance if required Work out oxidation state of the element before and after the change Add electrons to one side of the equation so that the oxidation states balance If the charges on the species (ions and electrons) on either side of the equation do not balance then add sufficient H+ ions to one of the sides to balance the charges 5 If equation still doesn’t balance, add sufficient water molecules to one side Example 2 MnO4¯ being reduced to Mn2+ in acidic solution BALANCING REDOX HALF EQUATIONS 1 2 3 4 Work out formulae of the species before and after the change; balance if required Work out oxidation state of the element before and after the change Add electrons to one side of the equation so that the oxidation states balance If the charges on the species (ions and electrons) on either side of the equation do not balance then add sufficient H+ ions to one of the sides to balance the charges 5 If equation still doesn’t balance, add sufficient water molecules to one side Example 2 Step 1 MnO4¯ being reduced to Mn2+ in acidic solution MnO4¯ ———> Mn2+ No need to balance Mn; equal numbers BALANCING REDOX HALF EQUATIONS 1 2 3 4 Work out formulae of the species before and after the change; balance if required Work out oxidation state of the element before and after the change Add electrons to one side of the equation so that the oxidation states balance If the charges on the species (ions and electrons) on either side of the equation do not balance then add sufficient H+ ions to one of the sides to balance the charges 5 If equation still doesn’t balance, add sufficient water molecules to one side Example 2 Step 1 Step 2 MnO4¯ being reduced to Mn2+ in acidic solution MnO4¯ ———> +7 Mn2+ +2 Overall charge on MnO4¯ is -1; sum of the OS’s of all atoms must add up to -1 Oxygen is in its usual oxidation state of -2; four oxygen atoms add up to -8 To make the overall charge -1, Mn must be in oxidation state +7 ...
