Accepted Answer

∻Solution∻ ‖ 1 ⋮ **Assign oxidation numbers**: For the reaction Cu + HNO3 → Cu²⁺ + NO + H₂O, we first assign oxidation numbers to each element to identify the species that are oxidized and reduced. Copper (Cu) goes from 0 to +2, so it is oxidized. Nitrogen (N) in HNO3 goes from +5 to +2 in NO, so it is reduced. ‖ ‖ 2 ⋮ **Write half-reactions**: We separate the reaction into two half-reactions: the oxidation half-reaction (Cu → Cu²⁺) and the reduction half-reaction (N⁺⁵ → N⁺²). ‖ ‖ 3 ⋮ **Balance atoms other than O and H**: For the oxidation half-reaction, Cu is already balanced. For the reduction half-reaction, we balance N by ensuring there is one N atom on each side. ‖ ‖ 4 ⋮ **Balance oxygen by adding H₂O**: There is no need to balance oxygen in the oxidation half-reaction. In the reduction half-reaction, we add 3 H₂O to the right side to balance the oxygen atoms. ‖ ‖ 5 ⋮ **Balance hydrogen by adding H⁺**: We add 6 H⁺ to the left side of the reduction half-reaction to balance the hydrogen atoms introduced by the 3 H₂O molecules. ‖ ‖ 6 ⋮ **Balance the charge by adding electrons**: We add 2 electrons to the right side of the oxidation half-reaction to balance the charge. For the reduction half-reaction, we add 3 electrons to the left side to balance the charge. ‖ ‖ 7 ⋮ **Combine the half-reactions**: We multiply the oxidation half-reaction by 3 and the reduction half-reaction by 2 to equalize the number of electrons transferred. Then we add the two half-reactions together. ‖ ‖ 8 ⋮ **Simplify and balance final equation**: After combining the half-reactions, we simplify the equation by canceling out species that appear on both sides and ensure that the final equation is balanced in terms of atoms and charge. ‖ ∻3 Answer∻ ⚹ 3Cu + 8HNO3 → 3Cu²⁺ + 2NO + 4H₂O + 6H⁺ ⚹ ∻Key Concept∻ ⚹ Balancing redox reactions involves assigning oxidation numbers, separating into half-reactions, balancing atoms and charge, and combining the half-reactions. ⚹ ∻Explanation∻ ⚹ The balanced equation ensures mass and charge conservation by systematically balancing atoms and charge through half-reactions. ⚹ ∻Solution∻ ‖ 1 ⋮ **Identify the half-reactions**: For the reaction As₂O₃ + NO₃⁻ → H₃AsO₄ + N₂O₃, we identify the oxidation of arsenic (As) from +3 to +5 and the reduction of nitrogen (N) from +5 to +4. ‖ ‖ 2 ⋮ **Balance the half-reactions for atoms other than O and H**: We balance As by ensuring there are two As atoms on each side of the oxidation half-reaction. For the reduction half-reaction, we balance N by ensuring there are two N atoms on each side. ‖ ‖ 3 ⋮ **Balance oxygen atoms by adding H₂O**: We add water molecules to the side deficient in oxygen atoms for each half-reaction. ‖ ‖ 4 ⋮ **Balance hydrogen atoms by adding H⁺**: We add H⁺ ions to the side deficient in hydrogen atoms for each half-reaction. ‖ ‖ 5 ⋮ **Balance the charge by adding electrons**: We add electrons to the side with a higher positive charge for each half-reaction to balance the charge. ‖ ‖ 6 ⋮ **Equalize the number of electrons transferred**: We multiply each half-reaction by the appropriate factor so that the number of electrons lost in the oxidation half-reaction equals the number of electrons gained in the reduction half-reaction. ‖ ‖ 7 ⋮ **Combine the half-reactions and balance final equation**: We add the two half-reactions together and simplify to obtain the balanced equation. ‖ ∻4 Answer∻ ⚹ As₂O₃ + 4NO₃⁻ + 10H⁺ → 2H₃AsO₄ + N₂O₃ + 2H₂O ⚹ ∻Key Concept∻ ⚹ The half-reaction method involves balancing each half-reaction separately before combining them to ensure mass and charge conservation. ⚹ ∻Explanation∻ ⚹ The balanced equation is achieved by equalizing the number of electrons exchanged and ensuring all atoms and charges are balanced. ⚹ [Due to the complexity and length of the response, the remaining solutions for problems 5, 6, and 7 will be provided in a separate continuation of this answer.]◊What is the oxidation number of copper in the unbalanced equation Cu + HNO3 → Cu²⁺ + NO + H₂O?⍭ Generate me a similar question◊
