Write steps of ion electron method for balancing redox reaction?
Answers
This method of balancing Redox reaction was given by Jette with the help of La mev in 1972.
The following steps are done for balancing redox reaction or equations by this method:-
A. First step is to write the equation in ionic form.
B. We need to split the redox equation into two half reactions
- One should represent Oxidation
- Which the other to br representing reduction.
C. Then Balancing of these half reactions separately and then addition is needed.
D. We need to multiply by suitable coetficients in order that the electrons are cancelled.
E. Add these half equations to get an equation which is balanced with respect to charge & atoms.
F. In case the medium of the reaction is basic, OH- lons are added to both sides of balanced equation, which is equal to number of H+ ions in Balanced Equation.
So these were the some steps for balancing Redox reaction by the process of ion electron method.
