0^ -1 ^ Oxidation and reduction always accompany each other – neither can occur alone LEO the lion says GER o Lose Electron Oxidation o Gain Electron Reduction • Oxidation Number: Theoretical Charge on atom o Oxidation numbers have rules – rule earlier in the list always takes priority • Oxidation Number Rules 1. ON = 0 when neutral molecule or free element ▪ All elements at first have a neutral charge because they have the same number of protons and electrons • I.e. Na has an atomic mass of 11; this means 11 protons and 11 electrons. +11-11= 0 so a neutral charge 2. ON = ionic charge for an ion • Ion: molecule with a charge due to loss or gain of electron(s) 3. ON = -2 for oxygen in most compounds • EXCEPT: H2O2 and O224. ON= +1 for hydrogen • ON= -1 for H when bonded to metals in binary compounds (NaH, LiH, CaH2) 5.

ON = -2 for 6A elements other than oxygen (O, S, Se, Te, Po) 7. ON does not have to be an integer • Highest possible ON of an element in 1A-7A is its group number • If composed of polyatomic ions: break down the compound into ions before determining the oxidation state of the element o If an ion has two capital letters in it, it’s polyatomic • Redox Half-Reactions: explicitly shows the electrons involved in a redox reaction o Oxidation half-reaction: 2Mg (s) ! 2Mg2+ + 4eo Reduction half-reaction: O2 (g) +4e- ! 2O2o Sum of half reactions: 2Mg (s) + O2 (g) ! 2MgO (s) • Oxidizing agent: o Reactant that helps oxidation o Oxidizing agent is reduced (gains e-) o Characteristic of nonmetals: i.e. fluorine, oxygen • Reducing agent: o Reactant that promotes reduction o Reducing agent is oxidized (loses e-) o Characteristic of an active metal o 2Mg (s) + O2 (g) ! 2MgO(s) 0 0 +2 -2 Mg loses e- Mg is oxidized O2 is the oxidizing agent O2 gains eO2 is reduced Mg is the reducing agent • Combination: 2Al (s) + 3 Br2 (g) ! 2AlBr3 (s) • •
