Balancing Redox Reactions Flashcards
1st step of acid base titration
Write the half reactions
2nd step of acid base titration
Balance the atoms other than Hydrogen and Oxygen
3rd step of acid base titration
Balance the Oxygen by adding H2O
4th step of acid base titration
Balance the hydrogens by adding H+
5th step of acid base titration
Balance the charges by adding electrons
6th step of acid base titration
Make the number of electrons equal, and combine the half reactions
Extra step of a basic titration
Add Hydroxides to the left and right of the equation (right side will become H2O)
Extra simplification step
Reduce protons (H+)
