The answer is (3) HClO. In the Cl2, chlorine has an oxidation number of zero. In HCl, the oxidation number is -1. In HClO2, the oxidation number is +3. In HClO, it is +1. You can calculate this by using O with oxidation number of -2 and H with +1.
Since the half-reaction is occurring in a basic solution, add 32OH− to each side of the equation to eliminate the H+ ions.
P₄ +16H₂O + 32OH⁻ ⟶ 4PO₃⁻⁴ + 32H⁺ +32OH⁻
Final reaction :
P₄ + 32OH⁻ ⟶ 4PO₃⁻⁴ + 16H₂O + 20e⁻
A half reaction is either the oxidation or reduction reaction component of a redox reaction. A half reaction is obtained by considering the change in oxidation states of individual substances involved in the redox reaction.
The concept of half-reactions is used to describe what occurs in an electrochemical cell, such as a Galvanic cell battery. Half-reactions can be written to describe both the metal undergoing oxidation (known as the anode) and the metal undergoing reduction (known as the cathode).
Half-reactions are often used as a method of balancing redox reactions. For oxidation-reduction reactions in acidic conditions, after balancing the atoms and oxidation numbers, one will need to add H+ ions to balance the hydrogen ions in the half reaction.
For oxidation-reduction reactions in basic conditions, after balancing the atoms and oxidation numbers, first treat it as an acidic solution and then add OH- ions to balance the H+ ions in the half reactions (which would give H2O).

Since
21.2 g H2O was produced, the amount of oxygen that reacted can be obtained
using stoichiometry. The balanced equation was given: 2H₂ + O₂ → 2H₂O and
the molar masses of the relevant species are also listed below. Thus, the
following equation is used to determine the amount of oxygen consumed.
Molar mass of H2O = 18
g/mol
Molar mass of O2 = 32
g/mol
21.2 g H20 x 1 mol
H2O/ 18 g H2O x 1 mol O2/ 2 mol H2O x 32 g O2/ 1 mol O2 = 18.8444 g O2
<span>We then determine that
18.84 g of O2 reacted to form 21.2 g H2O based on stoichiometry. It is
important to note that we do not need to consider the amount of H2 since we can
derive the amount of O2 from the product. Additionally, the amount of H2 is in
excess in the reaction.</span>
Hey there!:
Answer : D
A water molecule can donate a proton to another water molecule, forming H3O⁺and OH⁻ in solution.
Hope this helps!
