Question

discribe the steps in balancing a redox equation by oxidation numbers method​

Answer 1

Answer:

Steps for Balancing Redox Reactions

1.Assign oxidation numbers and find out what is being oxidized and what is being reduced.

2.Draw arrows connecting "like" elements on the left and right side of the chemical equation. ...

3.Write the number of electrons over your arrows that shows the differences in the oxidation states.

Answer 2

The steps in balancing a redox equation by oxidation numbers method are

$\bigstar$ First write the skeleton equation.

$\bigstar$ Next indicate the oxidation numbers of all the atoms involved in the equation

$\bigstar$ Identify the elements which undergo change in oxidation number.

$\bigstar$ Calculate the increase and decrease in oxidation number of an atom

$\bigstar$ Equate the increase and decrease in oxidation number on the reactant side by multiplying the formula of oxidising and reducing agents.

$\bigstar$ Finally balance H and O atoms also
