CAN SOMEONE PLEASE TELL ME WHAT IS PRECIPITATION???

Also... when the give u an equation.. how do u know if it is a redox or oxidation???

Please Notify me :)

Precepitation is when a solid forms when two liquids are mixed together (for example neutralisation reactrions)
Looks like i ran out of cool signatures :|

Thanks ...

now can someone tell me.. how do u know if an equation is given if the reaction is redox or oxidizing??

shouldnt it be A?


above 7 would be basic .. the other option says blue to red .. shows for acidic

Someone please explain.  I don't get!  Especially why last one isnt redox.  Thanks

S + 02 --> S02

S - oxidation number 0..
O2 - oxidation number 0

SO2 --> oxidation number of O = (-2*2) = -4 , thus oxidation number of S = +4

S--> 0 to 4 oxidation
O -> 0 to -4 reduction

thus redox.

2S02 + 02-->2 S03

2SO2 -> oxidation number of O = (-2*2) = -4, thus S = +4.  O2 -> 0, final of O = -4+0 = -4

SO3--> Oxidation number of O = (-2*3) = -6, of S = +6

Final , S --> 4 to 6 oxidation

         O --> -4 to -6 reduction

SO3 + H20--> H2SO4

SO3 --> O = (-3*2) = -6 , thus S = +6

H2O --> O = -2, thus H = +2

O in both compounds thus, final number of O = -6-2 = -8

H2SO4--> O = (-2*4) = -8, thus H = +2, as final oxidation number of the compound shud be 0, -8+2+S = 0

thus, S = +6

now the changes

S --> 6 to 6
H --> 2 to 2
O --> -8 to -8..

NOt redox.

this drove me crazy during my IGCSEs too..

S + 02 --> S02

S - oxidation number 0..
O2 - oxidation number 0

SO2 --> oxidation number of O = (-2*2) = -4 , thus oxidation number of S = +4

S--> 0 to 4 oxidation
O -> 0 to -4 reduction

2S02 + 02-->2 S03

2SO2 -> oxidation number of O = (-2*2) = -4, thus S = +4.  O2 -> 0, final of O = -4+0 = -4

SO3--> Oxidation number of O = (-2*3) = -6, of S = +6

Final , S --> 4 to 6 oxidation

         O --> -4 to -6 reduction

SO3 + H20--> H2SO4

SO3 --> O = (-3*2) = -6 , thus S = +6

H2O --> O = -2, thus H = +2

O in both compounds thus, final number of O = -6-2 = -8

H2SO4--> O = (-2*4) = -8, thus H = +2, as final oxidation number of the compound shud be 0, -8+2+S = 0

thus, S = +6

now the changes

S --> 6 to 6
H --> 2 to 2
O --> -8 to -8..

NOt redox.



In the first one, why are the oxidation state of S and of 02 zero? :S
Thanks. :)

The equation shows the reaction between a halogen and the aqueous ions of another halogen.
X2 + 2Y- ? 2X- + Y2
What could X2 and the colour of Y– be?

A chlorine, brown
B chlorine, colourless
C iodine, brown
D iodine, colourless

Answer is B..... ??? ??? ??? :-\ HOWWWWWWWWWWWWWW? Plzz help me out someone!

Oxidation States of Elements is always 0. Its a rule.

"The oxidation number of any free element is zero."
