RULES TO DETERMINE OXIDATION NUMBER
DETERMINATION OF OXIDATION NUMBER
EXAMPLE
Find the oxidation number of C in Na2CO3
SOLUTION
Na2CO3 Na2CO3 = 0
0 = 2Na + 1C + 3O
= 2(+1) + 1C + 3(-2)
+1 -2 = 1C - 4
C = 0 + 4 = +4
DETERMINATION OF OXIDATION NUMBER
EXAMPLE
Find the oxidation number of Mn in MnO4-
SOLUTION
- MnO4- = -1
MnO4 ON = -1
-1 = 1Mn + 4O
= 1Mn + 4(-2)
= 1Mn – 8
-2
Mn = -1 + 8 = +7
DETERMINATION OF OXIDATION NUMBER
PRACTICE
1. Identify the oxidation numbers of all the atoms in HCO3−.
2. Determine the oxidation number for the underlined element

4.3 - REDUCING & OXIDIZING AGENT
REDUCING AGENT
The species which is being oxidized itself (electron donor)
OXIDIZING AGENT
The species which is being reduced (electron acceptor)

DETERMINATION OF REDUCING/OXIDIZING AGENT
TIPS / STEPS
1. Identify the substance oxidized and reduced.
Oxidized substance = Reducing agent
Reduced substance = Oxidizing agent
OXIDATION REDUCTION
REDUCING AGENT OXIDIZING AGENT
DETERMINATION OF REDUCING/OXIDIZING AGENT
EXAMPLE
Identify the oxidizing and reducing agent for the following reaction.
ON : +1 → 0
Oxidizing Agent : H2SO4 O atom : 12 → 0
DETERMINATION OF REDUCING/OXIDIZING AGENT
EXAMPLE
-
Redox reaction occurs when gold ion, Au3+ reacts
with iodide ion, I in
acidic solution. Predict the oxidizing and reducing agent.
SOLUTION
ON : +3 → 0 Oxidizing Agent : Au3+
ON : -1 → 0 Reducing Agent : I-
DETERMINATION OF REDUCING/OXIDIZING AGENT
EXAMPLE
Identify the oxidizing and reducing agent for the redox reaction.
SOLUTION
Reducing Agent : KCl
ON : -1 → 0
ON : +4 → +2
PRACTICE
Identify the oxidizing and reducing agent for the following:

HALF REACTION
Ionic equations to describe either gaining or losing electrons during redox reactions
-
Oxidation Zn (s) → Zn2+ (aq) + 2e
-
Reduction Cu2+ (aq) + 2e → Cu (s)
Overall (Full) Zn (s) + Cu2+ (aq) → Zn2+ (aq) + Cu (s)
Number of electrons transferred for both oxidation & reduction reactions must be in
same value.
BALANCING REDOX REACTION IN ACIDIC MEDIUM
