Question

Which of the following is not a step in balancing redox reactions in acidic solution, using the half-reaction method?




H2O and OH- are added as needed to the half-reaction equations to make the number of oxygen and hydrogen atoms balance.

Divide the chemical equation into two half-reaction equations, identifying which half-reaction is oxidation and which is reduction.

H2O and H+ are added as needed to the half-reaction equations to make the number of oxygen and hydrogen atoms balance.

Multiply each term in one of the half-reaction equations by a factor that will make t

Answer 1

In an acidic solution, never add OH-
