Answer 2

The balanced equation of KNO₃ + C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁ → N₂ + CO₂ + H₂O + K₂CO₃ is

         48KNO₃ + 5C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁ → 24N₂ + 36CO₂ + 55H₂O + 24K₂CO₃

• This reaction is an example of a redox reaction.
• Redox reactions involve a change in the oxidation state of the substrate.
• It is called oxidation when electrons are lost or the oxidation state increases. It is called reduction when they are gained or the oxidation state drops.
• Here, C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁ is a reducing agent, and KNO₃ an oxidizing agent.

How to balance a redox reaction :

The following step-by-step process can balance a redox equation.

1. Split the equation into two equal half-reactions.
2. Equalize the mass and charge of each half-reaction.
3. Make sure that each half-reaction receives the same amount of electrons.
4. Combine the half-reactions.
