Balance the following half reaction in basic conditions. Then, indicate the coefficients for H2O and OH– for the balanced half r
Ugo [173]

Answer:

The ballance half reactions are:

Mg²⁺  + 2e⁻ → Mg

6OH⁻ + Si  → SiO₃²⁻ + 4e⁻ + 3 H₂O

Coefficients for H2O and OH– are 3 for H₂O (in products side) and 6 for OH⁻ (in reactants side)

Explanation:

Si (s) + Mg(OH)₂ (s) → Mg (s) + SiO₃²⁻ (aq)

Let's see the oxidations number.

As any element in ground state, we know that oxidation state is 0, so Si in reactants and Mg in products, have 0.

Mg in reactants, acts with +2, so the oxidation number has decreased.

This is the reduction, so it has gained electrons.

Si in reactants acts with 0 so in products we find it with +4. The oxidation number increased it, so this is oxidation. The element has lost electrons.

Let's take a look to half reactions:

Mg²⁺  + 2e⁻ → Mg

Si  → SiO₃²⁻ + 4e⁻

In basic medium, we have to add water, as the same amount of oxygen we have, IN THE SAME SIDE. We have 3 oxygens in products, so we add 3 H₂O and in the opposite site we can add OH⁻, to balance the hydrogen. The half reaciton will be:

6OH⁻ + Si  → SiO₃²⁻ + 4e⁻ + 3 H₂O

If we want to ballance the main reaction we have to multiply (x2) the half reaction of oxidation. So the electrons can be ballanced.

2Mg²⁺  + 4e⁻ → 2Mg

Now, that they are ballanced we can sum the half reactions:

2Mg²⁺  + 4e⁻ → 2Mg

6OH⁻ + Si  → SiO₃²⁻ + 4e⁻ + 3 H₂O

2Mg²⁺  + 4e⁻  + 6OH⁻ + Si  → 2Mg  +  SiO₃²⁻ + 4e⁻ + 3 H₂O

Which substance is the reducing agent in this reaction? 2KMnO4+3Na2SO3+H2O→2MnO2+3Na2SO4+2KOH
LuckyWell [14K]
2KMnO4+3Na2SO3+H2O→2MnO2+3Na2SO4+2KOH
In a reaction, the reducing agent is the element or compound that donates electron or the one tht loses electrons. The oxidized species. The opposite is called the oxidizing agent. It is the one who accepts the electrons lost. For this reaction KMnO4 is reduced into MnO2.
