Question

Potassium and chlorine react to form potassium chloride
i) It is a redox reaction.
ii) See if you can write the balances half equations for it.

Answer 1

Answer:

1)k+cl=kcl

k has oxidation no 0 on reacting side and +1 on product side so it is oxidized

and cl has oxidation no. 0 on reacting side and -1 on product so it is reduced hence it is a redox reaction

2)k-electron=k+

cl+electron=cl-
