1 E3 Redox: Transferring electrons Session one of two First hour: Discussion (E) 2nd and 3rd hour: Lab (E3, Parts and 2A) Oxidation-Reduction (Redox) Reactions involve electron transfer. Change in charge (oxidation state) of reactants. Example: 2 Na (s) + Cl 2 (g) 2 NaCl (s) Lose of e s = oxidation (Na Na + in NaCl) Gain of e s = reduction (Cl Cl - in NaCl) Redox reaction 2 Na + Cl 2 2 ΝaCl + energy LEO GER DEMO Loss of electrons (LEO) = oxidation Gain of electrons (GER) = reduction

2 REDOX alf Reactions Oxidation Reduction ( > in oxidation state) ( < in oxidation state) 2 ( Na Na + + e - ) ( Cl 2 + 2e - 2Cl - ) OXIDIZING AGENT Gains electrons and is reduced (GER) REDUCING AGENT Loses electrons and is oxidized (LEO) alf reactions always written to show electron GAIN. The final equation reflects the sum of the balanced half reactions so that electrons lost = electrons gained: 2 Na + Cl 2 2 Na Cl - An oxidizing agent brings about the oxidation of another substance. A reducing agent bring about the reduction of another substance. Redox Agents Q. Identify the reducing agents (RA) and oxidizing agents (OA) in the reaction: 2 Na + Cl 2 2 Νa Cl - + energy RA OA OA RA Metals lose electrons Non-metals gain electrons A VIIIA 2 e s IIA IIIA IVA VA VIA VIIA s 2 3 Li 4 Be 5 B 6 C 7 N 8 O 9 F 0 Ne 2s 2s 2 2s 2 2p 2s 2 2p 2 2s 2 2p 3 2s 2 2p 4 2s 2 2p 5 2s 2 2p 6 Na 3s 9 4s 3 7 Rb 5s 5 5 Cs 6s 8 7 7s 6 2 Mg 3 Al 4 Si 5 P S 7 Cl 8 Ar 3s 2 IIIB IVB VB VIB VIIBVIIIB VIIIB IB IIB 3s 2 3p 3s 2 3p 2 3s 2 3p 3 3s 2 3p 4 3s 2 3p 5 3s 2 3p Ca Sc Ti V Cr Mn Fe Co Ni Ga Ge As Se Br r 4s 2 3d 4s 2 3d 2 4s 2 3d 3 4s 2 3d 5 4s 3d 5 4s 2 3d 6 4s 2 3d 7 4s 2 3d 8 4s 2 4s 2 4p 4s 2 4p 2 4s 2 4p 3 4s 2 4p 4 4s 2 4p 5 4s 2 4p 6 3d 0 4s 3d 0 4s Sr 5s 2 Oxidation State versus Family Number Y Zr Nb Mo Tc Ru Rh Pd 4d 5s 2 4d 2 5s 2 4d 3 5s 2 4d 5 5s 4d 5 5s 2 4d 7 5s 4d 8 5s 4d Ag Cd In Sn Sb Te I Xe 4d 0 5s 4d 0 5s 2 5s 2 5p 5s 2 5p 2 5s 2 5p 3 5s 2 5p 4 5s 2 5p 5 5s 2 5p Ba La* f 7 3 Ta 7 4 W 7 5 Re 7 6 Os 7 7 Ir 7 8 Pt 7 9 Au 8 0 g 8 Tl 8 2 Pb 8 3 Bi 8 4 Po 8 5 At 8 6 Rn 6s 2 5d 6s 2 5d 6s 2 5d 6s 2 5d 6s 2 5d 6s 2 5d 6s 2 5d 6s 2 5d 6s 6s 6p 6s 2 6p 2 6s 2 6p 3 6s 2 6p 4 6s 2 6p 5 6s 2 6p d 0 6s 5d 0 6s Element synthesized, Ra Ac # but no official name assigned 7s 2 6d 7s 2 6d 2 7s 2 6d 3 7s 2 6d 4 7s 2 6d 5 7s 2 6d 6 7s 2 6d 7 7s 2 2

4 Strength of Redox Agents Example: 2 Na + Cl 2 2 Νa Cl - RA OA OA RA The reactants are the stronger RA and OA and react spontaneously The non-reactive products are the weaker OA and RA. Redox agent strength Q.
