Question

Balance the following oxidation-reduction reaction and indicate which atoms have undergone oxidation and reduction.  ____HNO3 + ____S ---> ____NO + ____H2SO4

.sam. · Answer

2 HNO3 + S = 2 NO + H2SO4

anonymous · Answer

first you write all oxidation states of all elements in all compounds, both reactants and products, then you'll see which elements in reaction undergo oxidation and which undergo reduction, after that you write arrow from same element who changed oxidation state in reactants to products and on arrow state how many electrons are needed for oxidation or reduction and sum your electrons by multiplying necesary compounds so you get equal electron released from oxidized element and reduced element
