The balanced redox reaction are given below
2CrO₂⁻(aq) + 2H₂O(l) + 6ClO⁻(aq) →2CrO₄²⁻(aq) + 3Cl₂(g) + 4OH⁻(aq)
The Cl species is oxidizing agent .
There are following steps involve in balanced redox reaction in basic medium .
- Divide the reaction into two half reactions .
- Balance the elements other than oxygen and hydrogen .
- Balance the oxygen atom by adding
.
- Balance the hydrogen atom by adding
.
- Balance the charge by adding
. - Add
on both side - Neutralize by combing
and
.
- Add the half reaction and simply .
The species which reduces the other species in the redox reaction is called oxidizing agent . Similarly , the species which oxidize the other species in the redox reaction is called reducing agent .
