Question
Chapter 2.23, Problem 20P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
Out of the given two reactions, the oxidation-reduction reaction is to be determined.
Concept introduction:
Oxidation of carbon takes place at a bond between carbon and an atom that is less electronegative than carbon. The carbon atom is replaced by a more electronegative atom.
Reduction of carbon takes place at a bond between carbon and an atom that is more electronegative than carbon. The carbon is replaced by a less electronegative atom.
