Study Notes
- Oxidation number increases and number of electrons decreases in oxidation process.
- F₂ being most electronegative, is the most powerful oxidising agent with standard oxidation potential 2.87 V.
Reaction of HOCl and H₂O₂
- In this reaction HOCI + H₂O₂ → H₂O + Cl⁻ + O₂, oxidation number of oxygen increases from -1 to 0.
- H₂O₂ acts as reducing agent in this reaction.
Reaction of Ag₂O and H₂O₂
- In the reaction Ag₂O + H₂O₂ → 2Ag + H₂O + O₂, oxidation number decreases in reduction.
- Oxidation number of O in H₂O₂ increases, hence H₂O₂ acts as a reducing agent as it is undergoing oxidation.
Reduction
- Cu⁺⁺ + Ag → Cu⁺⁺ + Ag⁺
Oxidation
- Ag → Ag⁺
- Oxidation half-reaction is Ag → Ag⁺.
Reaction
- I₂ +10HNO₃ → 2HIO₃ +10NO₂ + 4H₂O
- In this reaction, HNO₃ is acting as an oxidising agent because oxidising state of N decrease from + 5 to +4.
- 3Cu+8HNO₃ → 3Cu(NO₃)₂ + 2NO + 4H₂O
- It is a reaction in which HNO₃ is acting as an oxidising agent because oxidation number of nitrogen is decreasing.
- 4Zn + 10HNO₃ → 4Zn(NO₃)₂ + NH₄NO₃ +3H₂O
- In this reaction HNO₃ act as oxidising agent.
- 2HNO₃ + P₂O₅ → 2HPO₃ + N₂O₅
- HNO₃ does not act as an oxidising agent because P₂O₅ is a dehydrating agent, so there is no change in oxidation number of N.
Oxidation state of Mn
- In MnSO₄, oxidation state of Mn = +2.
- In Mn₂O₃, oxidation state of Mn = +3.
- There is an increase of oxidation state by 1 when MnSO₄ changes to Mn₂O₃.
- Equivalent weight = Molecular weight / Oxidation state
Oxidation in reactions
- Oxidation is the addition of electronegative element or removal of electropositive element or increase in oxidation number.
- Cl₂ + 2KI → 2KCl + I₂ : In this reaction, the underlined species is oxidised as it involve the removal of electropositive element, i.e., K⁺.
- The reaction which involves oxidation, requires an oxidising agent S₂O₃⁻² → SO₄⁻²: S is undergoing oxidation.
- Oxidation state of S changes from 2 to 2.5 and hence this reaction requires an oxidising agent.
- The species in which an element has oxidation number lying in between its minimum and maximum values can act as oxidant and reductant both.
Oxidation States Table
- Oxidation state of O in species H₂O₂: -1
- Minimum oxidation state of O: -2
- Maximum oxidation state of O: 0
- Oxidation state of O in H₂O: -2

- Hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) can act oxidising as well as a reducing agent.
- H₂O₂ as a reducing agent,Ag₂O + H₂O₂→ 2Ag + H₂O + O₂
- H₂O₂ as an oxidising agent, PbS + 4H₂O₂ → PbSO₄ + 4H₂O
Balancing Equations
- 2 CuSO₄ + 4KI → Cu₂I₂ +2 K₂SO₄ + I₂

Equivalent nitrogen
- 6e +(N⁰)₂ → 2N⁻³
- E(N₂) = 28/6; E(NH₃) = 17/3
Reaction of lime
- Meq. of lime stone = Meq. of CaCO₃ = Meq. of KMnO₄ =Meq. of CaO
Oxidation States
- The oxidation number of an element is zero.
- Therefore; its covalency is 2 as oxidation number of S in S₈ os zero.
- Further in the S₈ molecule, each sulphur atom is connected to two other sulphur atoms, therefore covalency is 2.
- Let the oxidation state of N in HNO₃ is ,+1 + x + (-2 × 3) = 0
