Question

H2 (g) + 2OH^-1 (aq) = 2H2O (l) + 2 e^-1

What type of reaction is this?Explain ur answer.

Answer 1

A redox reaction involves a transfer of electrons from one species
to another. This results in a change in oxidation number.
Oxidation (reducing agent): loss of electrons
Reduction (oxidizing agent): gain of electrons
these reactions must occur together
example: thermal decomposition of potassium chlorate

Answer 2

Answer:

This reaction is redox reaction.

Explanation:

The given reaction is

H2(g)+2OH^-(aq)=2H2O(l) +2e-

In this reaction the H loses electon it's electron and OH combines with H2 gas to form water.. here on the one side there is oxidation which is loss of electron and on the other side there is gain of electron which is reduction.. That's why this reaction is redox reaction.. which is a combination of reduction and oxidation reaction..
