Stage 1 Year 11 Chemistry is always an interesting time when an element can equal multiple different numbers like in H2O oxygen is 'always' equal to -2 but when it is in H2O2 it equals -1. How does any of this work? Unless your a crazy Chemist it all means nonsense and is just all numbers. REDOX reactions are when elements gain or lose electrons An example of a REDOX reaction is TiO2 + C > Ti + CO2 +4, -2x2 + 0 > 0 + +4, -2x2 Using this example it will help to work out how to work out the coordinates to GZ To work the coordinates out do: S33 A3 B7C Zn + Cu(NO3)2 > Zn(NO3)2 + Cu A = Cu + 3 before the reaction has occurred B = Zn + 7 before the reaction has occurred C = Zn after the reaction has occurred E138 Z8 Y0X Pb + 2AgNO3 > Pb(NO3)2 + 2Ag Z = 2Ag + 1 before the reaction has occurred Y = Pb after the reaction has occurred X = 2Ag + 1 after the reaction has occurred
