Which of these equations does not represent an oxidation-reduction reaction?

a. 3Al + 6HCl → 3H2 + AlCl3

b. 2H2O → 2H2 + O2

c. 2NaCl + Pb(NO3)2 → PbCl2 + 3NaNO3

d. 2NaI + Br2 → 2NaBr + I2

Respuesta :

Answer:

c. 2NaCl + Pb(NO3)2 → PbCl2 + 3NaNO3

Explanation:

In the others the elements change their oxidation number when they convert in products. In this reaction no.

Reagents

NaCl= Na (+1),Cl(-1)

PB(NO3)2= Pb(+2), N(+5), O(-2)

Products

PbCl2= Pb(+2), Cl(-1)

NaNO3= Na(+1), N(+5), O(-2)

The reaction that does not represent the oxidation reduction has been the  reaction of NaCl with [tex]\rm Pb(NO_3)_2[/tex]. Thus, option C is correct.

Oxidation-reduction reaction has been the redox reaction, that has been operated with the loss and gain of electrons by the elements. The oxidation has been the loss of electrons, while reduction has been the gain of electrons.

With the change in the electrons, there has been the change in the oxidation number of the elements that results in the evident of the oxidation and reduction reaction.

In the given reactions, the change in oxidation number has not been observed with the reaction of NaCl with [tex]\rm Pb(NO_3)_2[/tex]. Thus, the given reaction has not been a oxidation-reduction reaction. Thus, option C is correct.
