Half reactions in alkaline solutions Exercises |
MnO4- reacts with HCO2- to form MnO2 and CO32- in an alkaline solution. Write a balanced overall equation for the reaction. Solution = 2MnO4- + 3HCO2- + OH- ® 2MnO2 + 3CO32- + 2H2O |
Balance the following equations given that they occur in alkaline solutions. a) ClO-(aq) + CrO2-(aq) => Cl-(aq) + CrO4-2(aq) b) Al(s) + NO3-(aq) => Al(OH)4-(aq) + NH3(aq) c) Cr(OH)3(aq) + IO3-(aq) => CrO4-2(aq) + I-(aq) |
