3.2 Redox Reactions Flashcards
What does Cr2O7 2- go to?
Cr3+
What does MnO4- go to?
Mn2+
What does S2O3 2- go to?
S4O6 2-
What does H2O2 go to?
H2O or O2
What does NO3 - go to?
NO or NO2
What does SO4 2- go to?
SO2
What does C2O4 2- go to?
CO2
What does Fe2+ go to?
Fe3+
State and explain how the voltmeter value would change if Cr3+ ion conc increased whilst Cr2O7^2- unchanged
- reading smaller
- increase in Cr3+ ions shifts equilibria left
Half equation for acidified dichromate ions acting as oxidising agent
Cr2O7 2- + 14H+ + 6e- —> 2Cr3+ + 7H2O
Equation for redox reaction between Cu2+ and I-
2Cu2+ + 4I- —> 2CuI + I2
Explain the observations of the reaction between Cu2+ and I-
- copper is reduced and iodide oxidised
- brown ppt forms
Colour change in the redox reaction when iodine reacts with thiosulfate ions
Brown to colourless
What indicator is used for the reaction between iodine and thiosulfate
Starch
