Question
Answer
What is an oxidation number?   The ionic charge of an element.  
🗑
What is the oxidation number of a pure element?   0  
🗑
What is an ON rule for hydrogen?   +1 except in a metal hydride then it is -1  
🗑
What is an ON rule for oxygen?   -2 except with OF2 and H2O2  
🗑
What must the ON add to?   The total charge of the compound.  
🗑
If two elements both have a + or - charge:   The element with a higher electronegativity value keeps its charge  
🗑
What is a redox reaction?   A combination of 2 half-reactions  
🗑
What are half-reactions?   Oxidation and Reduction  
🗑
LEOGER is...   Loosing Electrons is Oxidation Gaining Electrons is Reduction  
🗑
What are the methods for balancing redox reactions?   1. Half Reaction Method 2. Oxidation Number Method  
🗑
What are the steps in the Half Reaction Method?   1. break redox into oxidation and reduction 2. Balance: non hydrogen/oxygen oxygen using H2O hydrogen using H+ charge using e- 3. find LCM for e- and multiply 4. cross out spectators 5. add  
🗑
What are the steps in the Oxidation Number Method?   1. assign ON to each element 2. find 2 elements with changed ON and which reaction each of the two was a part of 3. balance elements that underwent redox(multiply by LCM) 4. find LCM for e- 5. balance e- 6. balance the rest of the reaction  
🗑
How do you create a basic reaction?   add OH-  
🗑
How do you create an acidic reaction?   add H+  
🗑
What is a galvanic cell/voltaic cell?   a battery that changes chemical energy into electrical energy  
🗑
What reaction takes place within a battery?   Redox reaction  
🗑
What is an anode?   Negatively charged electrode where oxidation occurs  
🗑
What is a cathode?   Positively charged electrode where reduction occurs  
🗑
In diagrams where is the anode located?   to the left  
🗑
What is an electrode?   conductor of electricity that takes it into and out of the cell(battery)  
🗑
What is an electrolyte and its use?   substance that conducts electricity when dissolved into water  
🗑
What is a spontaneous reaction?   a reaction that naturally happens due to a favorable change  
🗑
What is the oxidization agent?   elements that accept electrons and undergoes reduction  
🗑
What is the reduction agent?   elements that loose electrons and undergoes oxidation  
🗑
What is a disproportionation reaction   redox  
🗑
What happens to the oxidation number in oxidation/reduction reactions?   oxidation increased ON reduction decreased ON  
🗑
