The following ReDox reaction takes place in acidic solution:
Fe2+ + Cr2O72– → Fe3+ + Cr3+
What is the sum of coefficients in this redox reaction?
When you balance the redox reaction in acidic conditons, there are 6Fe2+, 1 Cr2O72–, 14 H+, 6 Fe3+, 2 Cr3+, and 7 H2O. Don't forget to add the 1 in front of the Cr2O72–

For the following unbalanced redox reaction, how many electrons are transferred and which chemical species is being oxidized?
To begin, we will need to separate the given reaction into the two half-reactions by identifying changes in oxidation number. In this case, mercury (Hg) and phosphorus (P) show a change in oxidation number. Mercury begins with an oxidation number of zero, and ends with an oxidation number of . Phosphorus begins with an oxidation number of
and ends with an oxidation number of
. Note that the oxidation numbers for fluorine and iodine reamain constant at
for each.
Now we can begin to look at the half-reactions.
Balance the atoms.
Now balance the electrons. We know that each mercury atom loses one electron and each fluorine atom gains one electron.
We can see that two electrons are tranferred. To identify the element being oxidized, we must find the element that is losing electrons. In this case, mercury is being oxidized.
