Document Summary

# write the half-reactions of an oxidation reduction reaction. # determine the species undergoing oxidation and reduction. # recognize combination reactions, decomposition reactions, displacement reactions, and combustion reactions. # use the activity series to predict when displacement reactions will occur. # balance simple oxidation reduction reactions by the half-reaction method. 19. 1 balancing oxidation reduction reactions in acidic and basic solutions - we will look at a different method in class - there are many different methods. # learn the steps for balancing oxidation reduction reactions in acidic solution using the halfreaction method. # balance equations by the half-reaction method (acidic solution). # learn the additional steps for balancing oxidation reduction reactions in basic solution using the half-reaction method. # balancing equations by the half-reaction method (basic solution). What is oxidation ______________________ by an atom, molecule, ion, etc. What is reduction ______________________ by an atom, molecule, ion, etc. e. g. , 2na(s) + cl2(g) 2nacl(s)
