Redox rns Flashcards
Highest OS
Reducing agent
H shows -1 with
e’ +ve metals
O shows -1 in
peroxide
O shows -1/2 in
superoxide like KO2
O shows +1 in
O2F2
OS increase, acidic strength
increases
When metal combine with non metal, it shows
+ve OS
In which, OS of metal is 0
metal carbonyls & amalgams
Why does Cr show +6 in CrO5
4 ‘O’ exists as peroxide
Caro’s acid
H2SO5
State of S in H2SO5
+6
Marshall’s acid
H2S2O8
Bleaching powder
CaOCl2
For combination redox
either reactant must be in elementary state
For decomposition redox
Any one prod must be in elementary state
Every decomposition rns are not
redox
which cannot show disproportionation rn
F
Equivalent mass
MM of oxid/red agent/No of e’s gained or lost
Which metals liberate H2
with -ve Red potential
