4 Experiments:

Burning magnesium

Copper in silver nitrate solution

Chlorine solution and potassium iodide solution

Exploding hydrogen

Word equation

Balanced symbol equation

Slide 4

2Mg(s) + O2(g)  2MgO(s)

2Mg(s) + O2(g)  2MgO(s)

Oxidised – gains oxygen

Must be a redox!

Mg  Mg2+

O  O2-

Put the

e- in.

+2e-

+2e-

Oxidised – loss of e-

Reduced – gain of e-

Slide 5

Cu(s) + 2AgNO3(aq)  Cu(NO3 )2(aq) + 2Ag(s)

Cu(s) + 2AgNO3(aq)  Cu(NO3 )2(aq) + 2Ag(s)

Ag+  Ag

Cu  Cu2+

Complete the half-equations

Oxidised?

Reduced?

Oxidised – loss of e-

Reduced – gain of e-

Try Question 1.

Slide 7

H2(g) + ½ O2(g)  H2O(g)

H2(g) + ½ O2(g)  H2O(g)

Covalent!

No H+ or OH-

Need a new

definition.
