Question:33
Explain redox reactions on the basis of electron transfer. Give suitable examples.
Answer:
When a redox reaction takes place, the species which loses the electrons is regarded as undergoing the oxidation reaction. It therefore acts as an oxidizing agent or oxidant. For the species that accepts electrons is regarded as undergoing reduction and therefore it behaves as a reductant.
The above mentioned transfer is largely based on the relative electronegativity of difference between two interacting species. The higher electronegative element attracts more electrons while on the other hand the electropositive element loses electrons.
Splitting of the reaction into two halves here proves that sodium is oxidised, and hydrogen is reduced. Here, the sodium atom is oxidised, and the hydrogen atom is reduced; therefore, it is a redox reaction.
is a redox change.

Question:34
If a reaction might take place or not is dependent on the net cell EMF of the cell. The equation for the same is
In option (ii) it is clearly visible that, the reaction can take place as Mg has a more negative value of . Hence, Mg is oxidised by losing electron and iron is reduced by gaining an electron.
We can say that Fe undergoes reduction and Mg undergoes oxidation,
Question:35
Why does fluorine not show disproportionation reaction?
Answer:
We already know that; fluorine has the highest electronegativity in the entire periodic table with EN value of 3.98. Therefore, it is the most electronegative element in its period as well as in the group. It shows only -1 oxidation state and is smallest in size of all the halogens. We know that fluorine has the greatest reduction potential therefore, it is not able to undergo oxidation by itself. Hence, fluorine shows a disproportionation reaction.
Question:37
For all the chlorine atoms, we will assume the oxidation state to be x, and for atoms Na, K = +1, O = -2. Now, we know that, the sum of oxidation numbers of all the atoms in a compound is the same as the charge on that compound for an ion or zero.
Hence,
In the structure there are two atoms of chlorine with varying types of O ? O, Cl ? Cl. The structure is explained as follows: -
As chlorine is in its naturalthe oxidation number is zero.
Therefore the ascending order is,
Question:38
In order to determine the strength of a reductant/oxidant, we can use the titration method; it can be performed with the help of a redox-sensitive indicator.
The usage indicators in redox titration are as shown below:
In one scenario, the reagent itself is intensely coloured, e.g., permanganate ion, . In here, acts as a self-indicator. In this case, the visible endpoint is attained after the last of the reductantis oxidised. Now, the first lasting tinge of pink colour appears as concentration as low as mol . This make sure of a minimal ‘overshoot’ in colour beyond the equivalence point, which is the point from where the reductant and the oxidant are equal in terms of their mole stoichiometry.
