Oxidation – Reduction ReactionsIdentify the atoms that are oxidized and reduced,
and specify the oxidizing and reducing agents in the following reactions.
2Al(s) + 3I2(s) → 2AlI3(s)
2PbS(s) + 3O2(g) → 2PbO(s) + 2SO2(g)

Method of Balancing Redox Reactions in Acidic Solutions
1. Write separate equations for the oxidation and the reduction half-reactions
2. For each half-reactiona. Balance the elements except hydrogen and oxygenb. Balance the oxygen using H2Oc. Balance the hydrogen using H+
d. Balance the charge using electrons
3. If necessary, multiply one of both balanced half-reaction by an integer to equalize the number of electrons transferred in the half-reactions
4. Add the half-reactions and cancel identical species
5. Check that the elements and charges are balanced

Method of Balancing Redox Reactions in Basic Solutions
1. Use the half-reaction method as specified for acidic solutions to obtain the final balanced equation as if H+ were present.
2. To both sides of the equation, add a number of (OH)- that is equal to the number of H+.
3. Form H2O on the side containing both H+ and (OH)-, eliminate the number of H2O that appear on both sides of the equation.
4. Balance this equation:
Al(s) + MnO4-(aq) → MnO2(s) +Al(OH)4
-(aq)

ApplicationsIs the following a redox reaction?
(i.e. do oxidation states change from reactant to product)• Moving electrons is electric current.
• 8H++MnO4-+ 5Fe+2 +5e- Mn+2 + 5Fe+3 +4H2O
• Break the reactions into half reactions.
• Reduction: MnO4- Mn+2
• Oxidation: Fe+2 Fe+3
• In the same mixture electrons transfer without doing useful work, but if you separate oxidation rxn. from reduction rxn. we can force the electrons to flow through a wire.

• Connected this way the reaction starts• Stops immediately because charge builds up.

Galvanic Cell
Galvanic Cell (Voltaic Cell) can contain a salt bridge or a porous disk which allows the electrons to flow in a complete circuit.
10
Galvanic Cell
An electrochemical process involves electron transfer. The species that acting as a reducing agent supplies electrons to the anode. The species acting as the oxidizing agent receives electrons from the cathode. Galvanic Cell Animation 11

Cell Potential
Def. Pull (“driving force”) causes electron flow = Ecell
Called electromotive force (emf) or cell potential• Oxidizing agent pulls the electron.• Reducing agent pushes the electron. • Unit is the volt(V) • V = 1 joule of work/coulomb of charge• 1V = 1J/C

Standard Reduction Potential
Potential of a given species to become reduced when all species are in their standard state.
The Standard Hydrogen Potential is the reference potential against which all half-reactions potentials are assigned.
Standard States: [H+] = 1.0 MPH2 = 1 atmT = 298K
IUPAC has universally accepted the half-reaction potentials based on the assignment of zero volts to this rxn. 2H+ + 2e- → H2
Hydrogen Reduction Cell Potential is E o = 020
Cell Potential = E ocell
• Zn(s) + Cu+2 (aq) Zn+2(aq) + Cu(s)• The total cell potential is the sum of the potential at
each electrode.• • We can look up reduction potentials in a table
(A25) & combine using this formula:1. One of the reactions must be reversed, so some signs
must be reversed.2. Electrons lost = Electrons gain, so don’t need to
multiply value of Eo by integers when balancing equations

Determine the cell potential for a galvanic cell
Cu(s) + Fe+3(aq)
Cu+2(aq)
+ Fe+2(aq)
Step 1: Write the Half Reactions1. Fe+3(aq) + e- Fe+2(aq) E o = 0.77 V
2. Cu+2(aq)+2e- Cu(s) E o = 0.34 V
Step 2: Reverse equation #2 & change the signCu(s) Cu+2(aq)+2e- E o = -0.34 V
Step 3: Multiply equation #1 by integer 22Fe+3(aq) + 2e- 2Fe+2(aq) E o = 0.77 V
Step 4: Eocell
= Eoreduction + Eo
oxidation 22
Important Facts1. The higher the reduction potential the greater the
tendency to be reduced.2. Between 2 species, the species with the largest Eo
will be written as reduction and the other will be oxidization reaction, therefore it must be flipped.
3. The standard potential for an Galvanic Cell (Eocell)
comes from adding Eo for each half-reaction.4. When multiplying a half-reaction by an interger to
equalize e- number, DO NOT MULTIPLY the Eo by that number. Eo is an intensive property which does not depend on quantity. 23

• Calculate E for the following reaction:2Al(s) + 3Mn+2(aq) 2Al+3(aq) + 3Mn(s) Eo = 0.48 V
[Mn2+] = 0.50M & [Al3+] = 1.50M• Always have to figure out n by balancing.• If concentration can gives voltage, then from voltage
we can tell concentration.

The Nernst Equation
• As reactions proceed concentrations of products increase and reactants decrease.
• Reach equilibrium where Q = K and Eocell = 0
which is a “dead battery”

NiCad batteries can be recharged multiple times before the battery is no good.
Corrosion
• Rusting - spontaneous oxidation.• Most structural metals have reduction potentials
that are less positive than O2
• Reduction Potentials:– Fe+2 +2e- Fe Eo= -0.44 V
– O2 + 2H2O + 4e- 4OH- Eo= 0.40 V
– Al+3 + 3e- Al Eo= 0-1.66 V
40
Corrosion of Iron• Oxid. Fe Fe+2 +2e- Eo= 0.44 V
• Red. O2 + 2H2O + 4e- 4OH- Eo= 0.40 V
Fe+2 + O2 + H2O Fe2 O3 + H+
•Reaction happens in two places.
41
Preventing Corrosion• Coating to keep out air and
water.• Galvanizing - Putting on a zinc
coat– Has a lower reduction potential, so
it is more. easily oxidized.
• Alloying with metals that form oxide coats.– Stainless Steel – Cr + Ni
• Cathodic Protection - Attaching large pieces of an active metal like magnesium that get oxidized instead.
42
Electrolysis• Running a galvanic cell backwards.• Put a voltage bigger than the potential and reverse the
direction of the redox reaction.• Used for electroplating, charging a battery, producing
aluminum, electrolysis of water
