In an aldehyde, the carbonyl is at the end of a carbon chain, while in a ketone, it is in the middle. A carboxylic acid contains the carboxyl functional group. They are weak acids because the hydrogen of the hydroxyl group is ionizable. In an ester, the hydrogen of a carboxylic acid group is replaced by an alkyl group.

In this case all of the compounds in this list that have carbon except for CaCO3, are organic and the other compounds are inorganic.

Balance the following oxidation-reduction reactions, which take place in acidic solution, by using the "half-reaction" method.

LuckyWell [14K]

First identify which is being oxidized and reduced. In this case, the Mg is being oxidized and the Hg is being reduced.

Mg --> Mg+2

Hg+2 --> Hg+1

Then you have to balance each half reaction first with electrons before adding them together in one equation

$Mg$ ⇒ $Mg^{+2} + 2e^{-1}$

and

$2Hg^{+2} + 2e^{-1}$ ⇒ $Hg_{2} ^{+2}$

and then combine them together to form

$Mg + 2 Hg^{+2} + 2e$ ⇒ $Mg^{+2} + 2e ^{-} + 2 Hg^{+1} + 2 e^{-}$

It isn't necessary to keep the electrons but its essential to know how many there are in order to know how many are in the equation in order to calculate the reaction energy. Note: Add H+ and H2O to balance the H's and O's in acidic solution if needed.
