can anyone please explain the concept of reduction and oxidation half reaction with examples....
Answers
Answer:- any process which involves, i) the addition of oxygen or any electronegative radical; ii) the removal of hydrogen or any other electropositive radical, is termed oxidation.
For ex- C+O2 ----> CO2 (addition of oxygen)
2FeCl2 + Cl2 ------> 2FeCl3 (addition of electronegative radical)
H2S + Br2 --------> 2HBr + S (removal of hydrogen)
2KI +H2O2 ------> 2KOH + I2 (removal of eletropositive radical)
A process which involves i) the addition of hydrogen or any other electropositive radical or ii) the removal of oxygen or any other electronegative radical is termed reduction.
For ex- H2S + Cl2 ------> 2HCl + S (addition of hydrogen)
2HgCl2 + SnCl2 --------> Hg2Cl2 + SnCl4 ( addition of an electropositive radical)
CuO + H2 -----> Cu + H2O (removal of oxygen)
2FeCl3 + H2 -----> 2FeCl2 + 2HCl
