achieve week 7-8 Q#5
Can someone please help me balance the Pb(OH)2-(4) equation. the one with ClO-. thanks
Re: achieve week 7-8 Q#5
You have to make sure you do it in basic solution, so the OH add to H on the left and are alone on the right
Re: achieve week 7-8 Q#5
First write the half reactions, Cl's reduction and Pb's oxidation, then balance out Cland Pb, the balance out O on with OH- and H20, and finally balance charges with e-. Then add the 2 rxns to cancel out e-.
Re: achieve week 7-8 Q#5
You determine the oxidizing agent by looking at which species has been reduced. When balancing the equation you combine the two half reactions. You then simplify the balanced equations, to get your final balanced equation! :)
