The equation is:
3 O₂ + 4 Co → 2 Co₂O₃
Oxidation half reaction:
Co → Co³⁺ + 3 e
Reduction half reaction:
O₂ + 4 e → 2 O²⁻
To balance the equation number of electrons lost must be equal to number or electrons gained so we must multiply oxidation half time 4 and reduction half times 3
In order for the molecules to actually separate from each other, more energy must be added. This energy, called heat of fusion or heat of melting, is absorbed by the particles as potential energy as the solid changes to a liquid. I hope this helps
