Can someone help me solve this? I was given the answer at the end of class but I don't understand how the teacher got it. (Direc

tions: Balance each redox reaction in acid solution using the half reaction method.)
PbO2+I2=>Pb^2+ +IO3^- = I2+8H^+ +5PbO2=>2IO3^- +5Pb^+2 +4H2O

Unbalanced chemical reaction: PbO₂ + I₂ → Pb²⁺ +IO₃⁻<span>.
First </span><span>determine oxidation numbers of elements:
1) lead on the left side of reaction has oxidation number +4 (x + 2</span>·(-2) = 0) and on the right side +2, so lead is reduced.
2) iodine has neutal charge (0) on left and oxidation number +5 on the right side of chemical reaction (x + 3 · (-2) = -1), so iodine is oxidized.
3) oxygen has oxidation number -2 on both side of chemical reaction.
Second, write balanced half reactions, because this reaction is acidic solution, add hydrogen ions on one side and water on another side of half reaction; balance atoms and electrons on both half reactions:
Half reaction 1: PbO₂ + 4H⁺ + 2e⁻ → Pb²⁺ + 2H₂O /×5
5PbO₂ + 20H⁺ + 10e⁻ → 5Pb²⁺ + 10H₂O.
Half reaction 2: I₂ + 6H₂O → 2IO₃⁻ + 12H⁺ + 10e⁻.
Sum both half reactions and short same ions: 
5PbO₂ + 20H⁺ + I₂ + 6H₂O → 5Pb²⁺ + 10H₂O + 2IO₃⁻ + 12H⁺.
Abbreviate reaction: 5PbO₂ + 8H⁺ + I₂  → 5Pb²⁺ + 4H₂O + 2IO₃⁻..

Lewis diagram:
well first you have to know the Valence electrons the elements which will on top of the periodic table.

for examples:
H2O
it will be O-H-O and the dots will on top. oxygen have 6 valence electrons so that mean it need 6 dots. also for H it will have 7 V-electrons.

1) Why are the antimony and beryllium ions so small? Differentiate between the causes.
Viefleur [7K]
1. For this question, the adjective small must be percepted in a relative sense. This is because it is not the smallest ion (that would be hydrogen). It could be that the antimony and beryllium ions are smaller compared to their neutral forms. This is because they donate electrons when ionized. As a result, the electrons are reduced, so does the electron cloud which makes the radius much smaller.

2. The periodic table is arranged in terms of increasing atomic number. For neutral atoms, the number of protons (atomic number) is equal to the number of electrons. So, the farther we go down the table, the higher the atomic number. The higher the atomic number, the bigger the electron cloud which makes the atomic radius bigger. Because by definition, atomic radius is the length from the nucleus to the farthest electron from the nucleus.
