oxygen atoms

Reduction - a reaction in which a substance loses
oxygen atoms
Oxidation/Reduction & Electrochemistry
• A different type of “redox” (i.e. reduction plus oxidation)
reaction does not involve gain or loss of oxygen.
• Tarnishing of silver is a redox reaction that produces Ag2S.
• This spontaneous reaction can be reversed with a coupled
reaction (add 80 g of baking soda and 80 g of table salt per
litre of near boiling water in an aluminum pan to a depth
covering the silver object).
3 Ag2S + 2 Al + 6 H2O → 6 Ag + 2 Al(OH)3 + 3 H2S
1
Oxidation/Reduction & Electrochemistry
Let’s look at a simple case of this type of redox reaction:
Cu+2/Zn
Cu /Zn+2
Cu+2(aq) + Zn(s)
Cu(s) + Zn+2(aq)
Redox Reactions
Cu+2(aq) + Zn(s)
Cu(s) + Zn+2(aq)
The reaction can be represented by two half-reactions
in which electrons are either gained or lost and the
“oxidation state” of elements changes :
Cu+2(aq) + 2eZn(s)
Cu(s)
Zn+2(aq) + 2e-
oxidation state of Cu +2
0
oxidation state of Zn
+2
0
Reduction – a process in which electrons are gained.
(The oxidation state of an element decreases and
electrons appear on the left side of the half-reaction.)
Oxidation – a process in which electrons are lost.
(The oxidation state of an element increases and
electrons appear on the right side of the half-reaction.)
Oxidation States - Review
1) Oxidation state of an atom in a free element is 0.
2) Total of the oxidation states of atoms in a molecule or ion
is equal to the total charge on the molecule or ion.
3) Group 1A and Group 2A metals have oxidation state of +1
and +2 respectively.
4) F always has an oxidation state of –1. Cl also has
oxidation state of –1 unless it is bonded to oxygen or
fluorine.
5) H almost always has an oxidation state of +1.
6) O has oxidation state of –2 (unless bonded to itself or F).
7) When bound to metals, group 7A, 6A and 5A elements
have oxidation states of -1, -2, -3 respectively.

Electronegativities-Review
Example
What is the formal oxidation state of P in:
+1
-2
H3PO4
: 3 x (+1) + ? + 4 x (-2) = 0 (charge on molecule)
oxidation state of P = +5
?
H2PO4-
: 2 x (+1) + (O.S. of P) + 4 x (-2) = -1 (charge on ion)
oxidation state of P = +5
HPO42-
: oxidation state of P = +5
If the oxidation state of elements do not change in a
reaction, it is NOT a redox reaction!
H3PO4(aq) + 3 OH-(aq)
3H2O + PO43-(aq) acid/base reaction
Balancing Redox Reactions
Half-reaction method (not the same as method in textbook).
1) Identify species in which the oxidation state of an
element is changing. Write the skeleton half-reactions
including balancing of the redox atoms if necessary.
2) Identify oxidation state on both sides of equation for
elements that have a change in oxidation state.
3) Add appropriate number of electrons to either left or
right to balance oxidation states of redox atom(s).
4) Balance changes on left and right side of equation by
adding H+ (if in acidic solution) or OH- (if in basic
solution).
5) Add appropriate number of H2O’s to left or right side of
equation to balance atoms in the half-reaction.
3
Balancing Redox Reactions, cont’d
At this point, both half-reactions should be
balanced. The next step is to combine the two halfreactions to form an overall equation.
6) Multiply through each half-reactions by appropriate
coefficients to match electrons in each half-reaction.
(i.e. number of electrons lost by the oxidized species
must equal the number gained by the reduced one)
7) Add half-reactions and cancel electrons and other
common species on left and right sides of the
equation.
8) Check Reaction! It should be balanced in terms of
oxidation states, charge and atoms.
IF NOT, YOU HAVE MADE A MISTAKE!

Check atom balance. OK
Try example 5.7 using this approach, use OH- to
balance charge in basic solution. Much easier.
This method forces you to know oxidation states.

Ox/Red Agents, cont’d
Oxidizing Agent – a chemical substance that oxidizes
(removes electrons from) other substances in a
chemical reaction. In the process of oxidizing
something, the oxidant becomes reduced; it’s
oxidation state decreases.
Reducing Agent – a chemical substance that reduces
(loses electrons to) other substances. In the process
of reducing, the reductant becomes oxidized; it’s
oxidation state increases.

Electromotive Force (EMF) - The voltage difference
between two solutions provides a measure of the
driving force of the electron transfer reaction.
Standard Electrode Potentials
In electronics and electricity theory, a voltage is a
measurement of the potential to do electrical work
measured between two points in a circuit. Absolute
measurements of potential (voltage) at a single point
are meaningless, UNLESS, they are measured against
some known reference.
In electricity, that reference is known as “ground”.
In electrochemistry, that reference is the standard
hydrogen electrode (SHE).
A Standard Electrode potential, Eo, measures the
tendency for the reduction process to occur at an
electrode, when all species have unit activity
(substances in solution are ~ 1.0 M or, if gases, are at
1 bar {~1 atm} pressure).

Standard Electrode (reduction) Potentials
The potential of an electrochemical cell under
standard conditions may be calculated by
Eo cell = Eocathode – Eoanode
where the Eo’s are standard reduction potentials taken
from a table.
The cathode is the electrode at which reduction
occurs (electrons on left side of equation, oxidation
state decreasing).
The anode is the electrode at which oxidation occurs
(electrons on right side of equation, oxidation state
increasing).
Also for a spontaneous reaction, Eo cell > 0, as we will
see shortly.

Example 21-2
A new battery system currently under study for possible
use in electric vehicles is the ZnCl2 battery.
Reaction: Zn(s) + Cl2(g)

+ 1.358 V
cell =
+ 2.121 V
OR
Eocell = Eocathode – Eoanode = 1.358 – (- 0.763)V = 2.121 V
Spontaneous change in a Cell
Previously, it was said Ecell > 0 for a spontaneous
reaction. Where did this come from?
Electrical work:
Welectrical = Q V
Q = charge, V = voltage
If Q in coloumbs, V in volts, W in joules
Related:
P = iV
{P = power
i = current (charge/time), V = voltage}
If i - coloumbs/sec (Amp), V -volts, P- joules/sec = watts
In an electrochemical cell,
Q=nxF
n = moles of electrons
F = charge/mole of electrons = Faraday
F = 96485 C/ mole of electrons
V = Ecell
Spontaneous change, cont’d
Welectrical = Q V = nFEcell
This applies to a reversible process (implying that the
reaction is carried out slowly enough that the system
maintains equilibrium). Previously it was argued that the
amount of work we can extract from a chemical process
is equal –∆G (pg 796, Petrucci “Are You Wondering”
box).
∆G = – Welectrical
∆G = – nFEcell
∆Go = – nFEocell
If Eocell > 0, ∆Go < 0 and the reaction is spontaneous
If Eocell < 0, ∆Go > 0 and reaction is nonspontaneous
11
Behavior of Metals
Previously we said that experimental evidence shows the
following:
Metals that dissolve in
Metals that will
dilute H+ to produce H2
not dissolve
Li, Na, K (1A metals)
Mg, Ca (2A metals)
Al, Zn
Fe, Sn, Pb
Cu,

Au,
Hg
Now we can better understand this:
Mn+(aq) + n e-
M(s)
2 H+(aq) + 2 e-
oxidation
H2(g)
reduction
Eo = 0.00V
Eocell = Eocathode – Eoanode = 0 – EoM+/M
If EoM+/M < 0, Eocell > 0, the process is spontaneous.
If EoM+/M > 0, a stronger oxidizing agent than H+ is required
(i.e. HNO3, HClO4) .
Nernst Equation
Previously, we talked about standard
electrode potentials in which everything
was in its standard state.
Very rarely are things in standard state!
∆G = ∆Go + RT ln Q
R = gas constant
T = temperature (K)
Q = reaction quotient
-nFEcell = -nFEocell + RT ln Q

2) Calculate the value
of Ecell.
1) Pt|Fe2+(0.1M), Fe3+ (0.2M) || Ag+ (1.0M)|Ag(s)
2) The cell is in nonstandard conditions so we need to
apply the Nernst equation - we will need to find Eocell , n,
and Q.

Both half-cells are the same chemical system, just
different concentrations. The driving force (i.e. the

Determination of Ksp (see Example 21-10)
From measured Ecell,
determine Ksp.
Solution:
Set up Nernst equation
with Ag+ (xM) at anode,
0.1M at cathode.
Solve Nernst equation to
get x.
x = [Ag+] = S, [I-] = S
Ksp = S2

Electrolysis
The use of an externally applied voltage to force an
electrochemical reaction, even if it is naturally
nonspontaneous.

What about the reverse process?
Zn2+(aq) + Cu(s)
Zn(s) + Cu2+(aq)
Eocell = + 1.10 V
Nonspontaneous!
Eocell = - 1.10 V
But if we apply a potential > 1.10 V across the cell, we
overcome the natural negative voltage, thus providing
the driving force to make the reaction proceed.
Current is in opposite direction of voltaic, or galvanic,
cell.
