Redox Reactions by Transfer of Electrons at a Distance

by

Redox Reactions by Transfer of Electrons at a DistanceIn all redox reactions, electrons are transferred from the reducing agent to the oxidising agent. When the reducing and oxidising agents are mixed together as in the previous reactions, the transfer of electrons occurs quickly and cannot be detected. However, when the reducing and oxidising agents are separated … [Read more...] about Redox Reactions by Transfer of Electrons at a Distance

Redox reaction in the displacement of metals from its salt solution

by

Redox reaction in the displacement of metals from its salt solutionGenerally, metals are good electron donors and therefore are good reducing agents. However, different metals have different strength as reducing agents. The strength of metals as reducing agents can be compared by using the electrochemical series. The electrochemical series lists metals according to … [Read more...] about Redox reaction in the displacement of metals from its salt solution

Changing of iron(II) ions to iron(III) ions and vice versa

by

Changing of iron(II) ions to iron(III) ions and vice versaIron exhibits two oxidation numbers (a) +2 as iron(II) ion, Fe2+ (b) +3 as iron(III) ion, Fe3+ An aqueous solution containing iron(II) ions, Fe2+ is pale green in colour, whereas that containing iron(III) ions, Fe3+ is yellow/yellowish-brown/ brown in colour. Changing iron(II) ions to iron(III) ions is an … [Read more...] about Changing of iron(II) ions to iron(III) ions and vice versa
