@Abhisar

Answer 1

Please help me , i am badly in need for help

Answer 2

Do you know balancing in redox reactions

Answer 3

Balance the following Redox reaction:-
\[FeSO_4 +KMNO_4 + H_2SO_4 \rightarrow FE_2(SO_4)_3 + MNSO_4 +H_2O +K_2SO_4\]

Answer 4

@vishweshshrimali5 help

Answer 5

I just have a problem in figuring out their oxidation states

Answer 6

Fe = +2

Mn = +7
( in LHS)

Answer 7

Yes but how???

Answer 8

Well try the basic method of calculating OS

Answer 9

For FeSO4 what it would just give me an example i will do the rest
like
x-8 + ... =0

Answer 10

Yeah

Answer 11

what will be in the OS for sulphur

Answer 12

is there any rule , i am confused

Answer 13

break them up to ions first

Answer 14

Ok wait , i will tell you what i have a problem with

Answer 15

How will you find oxidation state of the elements in FeSO4

Answer 16

I know oxygen is always -2 right?

Answer 17

oh

Answer 18

i know your tutorial

Answer 19

is it not clear?

Answer 20

Well look

Answer 21

Can you do this one please

Answer 22

ok

Answer 23

FeSO4

Answer 24

O= oxidation state always -2

Answer 25

yes

Answer 26

Fe = +2

Answer 27

why is it +2?

Answer 28

why

Answer 29

yes

Answer 30

thats because oxidation state of \(SO_4\) is -2!

Answer 31

overall sum of oxidation states HAS to be 0 here
so if SO4 is -2
then Fe has to be +2
so that the final answer is 0
-2+2= 0

Answer 32

do u get so far why Fe is +2?

Answer 33

SO4 is x-8 =0 so sulphur must have +8 right

Answer 34

i can explain in different way if u want
no

Answer 35

yes go ahead
