Asemmisa {{asɛmmisaAhyɛnsode}}
7.

For the following redox reaction, select the appropriate oxidation and reduction half-reaction:

Zn + Fe3+ → Zn2+ + Fe2+

  • Zn → Zn2++ 2e-

  • Zn2++ 2e- → Zn

  • Fe → Fe2++ 2e-

  • Fe → Fe3++ 3e-

  • Fe2+ → Fe3++ e-

  • Fe2+ + 2e- → Fe

  • Fe3+ + 3e- → Fe

  • Fe3+ + e- → Fe2+

  • oxidation half-reaction

  • reduction half-reaction

Based on your answer from above:

Zn + Fe3+ → Zn2+ + Fe2+

Explain clearly how you would balance the electrons in this reaction in order to obtain the net ionic equation.
