Lesson 1: Redox Reactions
Oxidation – Reduction
Definitions: (species means atom, ion or molecule)
Oxidation – a species undergoing oxidation loses electrons
(charge becomes more positive)
Reduction – a species undergoing reduction gains electrons
(charge becomes more negative)
Oxidizing agent – The species being reduced
(gains electrons, causes the other one to be oxidized)
Reducing agent – The species being oxidized
(loses electrons, causes the other one to be reduced)
2 e-
E.g.) Cu2+ (aq) + Zn (s) ( Cu(s) + Zn2+(aq)
Oxidizing agent
|LEO says GER |
|Losing Electrons is |Gaining Electrons |
|Oxidization |is Reduction |
| | |
Redox – Short for Oxidation – Reduction
Charge on neutral atom or molecule = 0
Oxidation – Charge gets more + (loses electrons)
Reduction – Charge gets more – (gains electrons)
Reduction (charge decreases)
E.g.) Pb2+(aq) + Mg0(s) ( Pb0(s) + Mg2+(aq)
Oxidation (Charge increases)

Half-Reactions
-Redox reactions can be broken up into oxidation & reduction half reactions.
e.g.) Redox rx: Pb2+(aq) + Zn(s) ( Pb(s) + Zn2+(aq)
The Pb2+ (loses/gains) __________ 2 electrons.
Reduction Half-rxn: Pb2+(aq) + 2e- ( Pb(s)
Oxidation Half-rxn:
Note: Half-rx’s always have e-‘s, redox (oxidation-reduction) reactions never show e-‘s!
Given the redox reaction:
F2(g) + Sn2+(aq) ( 2F-(aq) + Sn4+(aq)

Assignment: Using data to make your own simple Redox table
Example problem:
1) Four metals A, B, C, & D were tested with separate solutions of A2+, B2+, C2+ & D2+. Some of the results are summarized in the following table:
|Solution |
|Metal |A2+ |B2+ |C2+ |D2+ |
|A | |(1) no reaction |(2) reaction | |
|B | | | |(4) no reaction |
|D |(3) reaction | | | |
List the ions in order from the strongest to weakest oxidizing agent.
Using data
Another example –
Four non-metal oxidizing agents X2, Y2, Z2 and W2 are combined with solutions of ions: X-, Y-, Z- and W-.
The following results were obtained;
1) X2 reacts with W- and Y- only.
2) Y- will reduce W2
List the reducing agents from strongest to weakest
Do Exercises 14,15,16 & 18 on p. 200 of SW.
Lesson 3: Balancing Half-Reactions
[pic]
[pic]
Balancing Redox Reactions Using Half-Reactions
1) Break up Rx into 2 half-rx’s.
2) Balance each one (in acidic or basic as given)
3) Multiply each half rx by whatever is needed to cancel out e-‘s
(Note: balanced half-rx have e-‘s (on left reduction on right oxidation) Balanced redox don’t have e-‘s)
4) Add the 2 half-rx’s canceling e-‘s and anything else (usually H2O’s, H+’s or OH-‘s) in order to simplify.
Example: U4+ + MnO4- ( Mn2+ + UO22+ (acidic)
Try this one:
SO2 + IO3- ( SO42- + I2 (basic solution)
-See examples p.205-207 in SW
Quick notes
-Some redox equations have just one reactant
- Use this as the reactant in both half-rx’s.
- These are called “self-oxidation-reduction” or Disproportionation reactions.
Eg) Br2 ( Br-- + BrO3- (basic) (found in some hot tubs)
Half rx’s are:
|Br2 ( Br-- | Br2 ( BrO3- |
| | |

2. SO2 + IO3- ( SO42- + I2 (basic solution)
3. Br2 ( Br-- + BrO3- (basic)
-This is optional
- As long as one method (not guessing!) works for you that’s fine. (This method or half-rx method.)
- Read examples p. 271-272 SW
