Interpretation: The given
Concept Introduction :
The oxidation number method involves:-
- Assign the oxidation number to each element.
- Check which element is oxidized and which element is reduced.
- Check the change in oxidation number for the elements which are oxidized and reduced.
- Balance the change in oxidation number by adjusting the coefficients in the equation.
- Then balance the other elements.
Answer to Problem 15PP
Explanation of Solution
The given redox reaction is:
Assigning the oxidation number-
The oxidation numbers of atoms show that
Change in oxidation number of
Change in oxidation number of
Thus adjusting the coefficients:
Thus the balanced chemical equation is:
