Question

Classify the following reactions as either redox, acid-base, or precipitation
a) (Cl2) + (2OH-) --> (Cl-) + (ClO-) + (H2O)
b) already got
c) (NH3) + (H+) --> (NH4+)
d) (4Fe) + (3O2) --> (2Fe2O3)
e) (Ca) + (F2) --> (CaF2)

anonymous · Answer

a. Redox: disproportionation: Cl is both oxidized and reduced.
c. acid-base: NH3 acts as a base, and NH4+ is its conjugate acid
d.Redox: Fe is the reducing agent, and Oxygen is the oxidizing agent.
e. Redox: Combination/Synthesis
