Question

Label the redox of each reaction. Indicate the number ofelectrons moving for each half reaction. Include all oxidationstates. P4 + 5O2 --> P4O10 2MnO4-1 +16H+1 +5C2O4-2 --> 2Mn+2 + 10CO2 +8H2O PbS + 4H2O2 --> PbSO4 + 4H2O 2NO2 + H2O --> HNO2 + HNO3 Label the redox of each reaction. Indicate the number ofelectrons moving for each half reaction. Include all oxidationstates. P4 + 5O2 --> P4O10 2MnO4-1 +16H+1 +5C2O4-2 --> 2Mn+2 + 10CO2 +8H2O PbS + 4H2O2 --> PbSO4 + 4H2O 2NO2 + H2O --> HNO2 + HNO3 2MnO4-1 +16H+1 +5C2O4-2 --> 2Mn+2 + 10CO2 +8H2O PbS + 4H2O2 --> PbSO4 + 4H2O 2NO2 + H2O --> HNO2 + HNO3

Explanation / Answer

The given redox reactions 1) P4 + 5O2P4O10 this is not a redox reaction, inthis reaction P forms its oxide, there is moving of 8e-for each half reaction. 2) 2Mno4- + 16H+ +5H2C2O4 2Mn+2 +10CO2+ 8H2O. this is an important redoxreaction in Redox titrations. when we consider each half reactionfor Mn moving of 5e-, for C moving of1e-. Mn oxidation state changed to Mn+7Mn+2 3) PbS + 4H2O2 PbSO4+ 4H2O in this reaction there is no moving ofelectrons in Pb, its oxidation state +2 3) PbS + 4H2O2 PbSO4+ 4H2O in this reaction there is no moving ofelectrons in Pb, its oxidation state +2 but moving of 4e- in S atomand its oxidationstate changed to +2 +6 4)NO2 + H2O HNO2 +HNO3 in this reaction N oxidation state is chnaged to+4 +3 and +5, there is to half reactions, there are a) NO2 NO2-  , in this half raction thereis moving of 1e- b) NO2 NO3- inthis half reaction moving of 1electron
