Balancing chemical Equations

ANSWER THE FOLLOWING QUESTIONS.


a) Use the inspection method to balance the following equations

1. AgNO3 + H2S → Ag2S + HNO3

Ag= 1x2= 2 Ag= 2


N= 1x2= 2 N= 1x2= 2
O= 3x2= 6 O= 3x2= 6
H= 2 H= 1x2= 2
S= 1 S= 1
2 AgNO3 + H2S → Ag2S + 2 HNO3

2. Al(OH)3 + H2SO4 → Al2(SO4)3 + H2O

Al= 1x2= 2 Ag= 2


O= 3x2= 6 and 4x3= 12 O= 12 and 1x6= 6
6+12= 18 12+6= 18

H= 3x2= 6 and 2x3= 6 H= 2x6= 12


6+6= 12

S= 1x3= 3 S= 3
2 Al(OH)3 + 3 H2SO4 → Al2(SO4)3 + 6 H2O

3. Fe3O4 + H2 → Fe + H2O
Fe= 3 Fe= 1x3= 3
O= 4 O= 1x4= 4
H= 2x4= 8 H= 2x4= 8
Fe3O4 + 4 H2 → 3 Fe + 4 H2O

4. C4H10 + O2 → CO2 + H 2O
C= 4x2= 8 C= 1x8= 8
O= 2x13= 26 O= 2x8= 16 and 1x10= 10
16+10= 26
H= 10x2= 20 H= 2x10= 20
2 C4H10 + 13 O2 → 8 CO2 + 10 H2O
Use the oxidation method to balance the following equations:

1. Al(s) + H2SO4(aq) → Al2 (SO4 )3(aq) + H2(g)

Step 1. Write the oxidation numbers for each atom:


+6 +6

0 +1 -2 -2 +3 -2 -2 0

Al(s) + H2SO4(aq) → Al2 (SO4)3(aq) + H2(g)

Step 2. Identify what has been oxidized and what has been reduced, and
balance the equation ONLY for these species
Al has been oxidized 0 to +3. We need 2Al on the LHS as we have 2 on the
right.
Hydrogen has been reduced from +1 to 0. We are balanced for H, so the
equation at this stage looks like:
2Al + H2SO4 → Al2(SO4)3 + H2
Step 3. Calculate the total increase in oxidation numbers due to the oxidation
taking place. We are oxidizing 2 x Al (oxidation state 0) to 2 x Al3+ (oxidation
state +3) so the total increase is +6.
Do the same for the reduction. We reduce 2 x H+ (+1) to 2 x H (0) so the total
decrease is -2
Step 4. Multiply the the species being oxidised and/or reduced so that the total
increase in oxidation number = total decrease in oxidation number. In this
example we need to multiply the species involved in the reduction of hydrogen
x3 to get a total decrease of -6. This means we need 3H 2SO4 and we get 3H2.
Balance equation: 2Al(s) + 3H2SO4(aq) → Al2(SO4)3 (aq) + 3H2(g)

2. PbS(s) + O2(g) → PbO(s) + SO2(g)

Step 1. Write the oxidation numbers for each atom:


+2 -2 0 +2 -2 4 -2

PbS(s) + O2(g) → PbO(s) + SO2(g)

Step 2 and 3. Identify what has been oxidized and what has been reduced, and
calculate the total increase in oxidation numbers due to the oxidation taking
place.
Pb2 + 2 e- → Pb0 (reduction)
-2 -
S  - 6 e → S4 (oxidation)
2O0 + 4 e- → 2O-2 (reduction)
Step 4. Multiply the species being oxidized and/or reduced so that the total
increase in oxidation number = total decrease in oxidation number.
Balance equation: 2PbS(s) + 3O2(g) → 2PbO(s) + 2SO2(g)
3. K2Cr2O7(aq) + H2O(l) + S(s) → KOH(aq) + Cr2O3(s) + SO2(g)

Step 1. Write the oxidation numbers for each atom:


+1 +6 -2 +1 -2 0 +1 -2 +1 +3 -2 +4 -2

K2Cr2O7(aq) + H2O(l) + S(s) →KOH(aq) + Cr2O3(s) + SO2(g)

Step 2 and 3. Identify what has been oxidized and what has been reduced, and
calculate the total increase in oxidation numbers due to the oxidation taking
place.
3 S0 - 12 e-  → 3 S4 (oxidation)
4 Cr6 + 12 e-  → 4 Cr3 (reduction)
Step 4. Multiply the species being oxidized and/or reduced so that the total
increase in oxidation number = total decrease in oxidation number.
Balance equation: 2K2Cr2O7(aq) + 2H2O(l) + 3S(s) →4KOH(aq) + 2Cr2O3(s) + 3SO2(g)

4. I2 + HNO3 → HlO3 + NO2 + H2O

Step 1. Write the oxidation numbers for each atom:


0 +1 +5 -2 +1 +5 -2 +4 -2 +1 -2
I2 + HNO3 → HlO3 + NO2 + H2O

Step 2 and 3. Identify what has been oxidized and what has been reduced, and
calculate the total increase in oxidation numbers due to the oxidation taking
place.
2 I0 - 10 e-  → 2 I5 (oxidation)
10 N5 + 10 e- → 10 N4 (reduction)
Step 4. Multiply the species being oxidized and/or reduced so that the total
increase in oxidation number = total decrease in oxidation number.
Balance equation: I2 + 10HNO3 → 2HlO3 + 10NO2 + 4H2O

5. HBr + HBrO3 → Br2 + H2O


Step 1. Write the oxidation numbers for each atom:
+1−1 +1+5 −2 0 +1 −2
HBr + HBrO3 → Br2 + H2O

Step 2 and 3. Identify what has been oxidized and what has been reduced, and
calculate the total increase in oxidation numbers due to the oxidation taking
place.
5 Br-1 - 5 e-  → 5 Br0 (oxidation)
Br5 + 5 e-  → Br0 (reduction)
Step 4. Multiply the species being oxidized and/or reduced so that the total
increase in oxidation number = total decrease in oxidation number.
