Problem 61

Given information

The unbalanced reaction is as given:

Step-by-step explanation

We will use the ion-electron method to balance this redox reaction. (Note- We are considering Acidic Medium.)

Write out the (unbalanced) reaction and identify the elements that are undergoing redox.

• is reduced to  
•   is oxidized to  

Separate the reaction into two half-reactions, balancing the element undergoing redox in each.
