## 🔢 Problem 1: Determine what is oxidized and reduced; identify oxidizing and reducing agents.

In redox reactions:
- Oxidation = loss of electrons → increase in oxidation number
- Reduction = gain of electrons → decrease in oxidation number
- Reducing agent = substance that gets oxidized (donates electrons)
- Oxidizing agent = substance that gets reduced (accepts electrons)

Let’s analyze each:

---

1. 2Sr + O₂ → 2SrO



- Sr: 0 → +2 → oxidized
- O: 0 → -2 → reduced

Oxidized: Sr
Reduced: O₂
Reducing agent: Sr
Oxidizing agent: O₂

2. 2Li + S → Li₂S



- Li: 0 → +1 → oxidized
- S: 0 → -2 → reduced

Oxidized: Li
Reduced: S
Reducing agent: Li
Oxidizing agent: S

---

3. 2Cs + Br₂ → 2CsBr



- Cs: 0 → +1 → oxidized
- Br: 0 → -1 → reduced

Oxidized: Cs
Reduced: Br₂
Reducing agent: Cs
Oxidizing agent: Br₂

---

4. 3Mg + N₂ → Mg₃N₂



- Mg: 0 → +2 → oxidized
- N: 0 → -3 → reduced

Oxidized: Mg
Reduced: N₂
Reducing agent: Mg
Oxidizing agent: N₂

---

5. 4Fe + 3O₂ → 2Fe₂O₃



- Fe: 0 → +3 → oxidized
- O: 0 → -2 → reduced

Oxidized: Fe
Reduced: O₂
Reducing agent: Fe
Oxidizing agent: O₂

---

6. Cl₂ + 2NaBr → 2NaCl + Br₂



This is a single displacement reaction.

- Cl: 0 → -1 → reduced
- Br: -1 → 0 → oxidized

Oxidized: Br⁻ (in NaBr)
Reduced: Cl₂
Reducing agent: NaBr
Oxidizing agent: Cl₂

---

7. Si + 2F₂ → SiF₄



- Si: 0 → +4 → oxidized
- F: 0 → -1 → reduced

Oxidized: Si
Reduced: F₂
Reducing agent: Si
Oxidizing agent: F₂

---

8. 2Ca + O₂ → 2CaO



- Ca: 0 → +2 → oxidized
- O: 0 → -2 → reduced

Oxidized: Ca
Reduced: O₂
Reducing agent: Ca
Oxidizing agent: O₂

---

9. Mg + 2HCl → MgCl₂ + H₂



- Mg: 0 → +2 → oxidized
- H: +1 → 0 → reduced

Oxidized: Mg
Reduced: H⁺ (in HCl)
Reducing agent: Mg
Oxidizing agent: HCl

---

10. 2Na + 2H₂O → 2NaOH + H₂



- Na: 0 → +1 → oxidized
- H: +1 → 0 → reduced

Oxidized: Na
Reduced: H₂O (specifically H⁺)
Reducing agent: Na
Oxidizing agent: H₂O

## 🧪 Problem 11: Oxidation number of each kind of atom or ion.

Rules:
- Free elements = 0
- Monatomic ions = charge
- Oxygen = -2 (except peroxides)
- Hydrogen = +1 (except with metals = -1)
- Sum of oxidation numbers in compound = 0; in polyatomic ion = ion charge

a. Sulfate (SO₄²⁻):
Let S = x
x + 4(-2) = -2 → x - 8 = -2 → x = +6

b. Sn (elemental tin) → 0

c. S²⁻-2

d. Fe³⁺+3

e. Sn⁴⁺+4

f. Nitrate (NO₃⁻):
Let N = x
x + 3(-2) = -1 → x - 6 = -1 → x = +5

g. Ammonium (NH₄⁺):
Let N = x
x + 4(+1) = +1 → x + 4 = 1 → x = -3

Answers:
a. +6
b. 0
c. -2
d. +3
e. +4
f. +5
g. -3

## 🧮 Problem 12: Calculate oxidation number of Cr in each.

a. Cr₂O₃
Let Cr = x
2x + 3(-2) = 0 → 2x = 6 → x = +3

b. Na₂Cr₂O₇
Na = +1, O = -2
2(+1) + 2x + 7(-2) = 0 → 2 + 2x - 14 = 0 → 2x = 12 → x = +6

c. CrSO₄
SO₄²⁻ has -2 charge → Cr must be +2

d. Chromate (CrO₄²⁻)
x + 4(-2) = -2 → x - 8 = -2 → x = +6

e. Dichromate (Cr₂O₇²⁻)
2x + 7(-2) = -2 → 2x - 14 = -2 → 2x = 12 → x = +6

Answers:
a. +3
b. +6
c. +2
d. +6
e. +6

## 🔄 Problem 13: Use oxidation numbers to determine what is oxidized/reduced.

*(Note: We don’t need balanced equations — just track changes)*

---

a. C + H₂SO₄ → CO₂ + SO₂ + H₂O



Assign oxidation numbers:

- C: 0 → +4 (in CO₂) → oxidized
- S in H₂SO₄: +6 → +4 (in SO₂) → reduced

Oxidized: C
Reduced: S (in H₂SO₄)

---

b. HNO₃ + HI → NO + I₂ + H₂O



- N in HNO₃: +5 → +2 (in NO) → reduced
- I in HI: -1 → 0 (in I₂) → oxidized

Oxidized: I⁻ (in HI)
Reduced: N (in HNO₃)

---

c. KMnO₄ + HCl → MnCl₂ + Cl₂ + H₂O + KCl



- Mn in KMnO₄: +7 → +2 (in MnCl₂) → reduced
- Cl in HCl: -1 → 0 (in Cl₂) → oxidized

Oxidized: Cl⁻ (in HCl)
Reduced: Mn (in KMnO₄)

---

d. Sb + HNO₃ → Sb₂O₅ + NO + H₂O



- Sb: 0 → +5 (in Sb₂O₅) → oxidized
- N in HNO₃: +5 → +2 (in NO) → reduced

Oxidized: Sb
Reduced: N (in HNO₃)
