__________ agent is an electron acceptor
oxidising
__________ agent is an electron donor
Reducing
What are the four steps to writing full Redox equations?
1) Balance the atoms
2) Balance the ions - the overall charge on each side
3) Scale up the half equations so the electrons cancel out
4) Re-write the half equations combines as an ionic equation
