Which of the following reactions is a redox reaction? (a) K2CrO4 + BaCl2 → BaCrO4 + 2KCl (b) Pb2+ + 2Br- → PbBr2 (c) Cu + S → CuS Which of the following reactions is a redox reaction? (a) K2CrO4 + BaCl2 BaCrO4 + 2KCl (b) Pb2+ + 2Br- PbBr2 (c) Cu + S CuS (a) only (b) only (c) only (a) and (c) (b) and (c)

Respuesta :

(c) Cu + S → CuS is a redox reaction

Explanation:

We have the following chemical reactions:

(a) K₂CrO₄ + BaCl₂ → BaCrO₄ + 2 KCl

(b) Pb²⁺ + 2 Br⁻ → PbBr₂

(c) Cu + S → CuS

There is a redox reaction where the elements are changing the oxidation state. The reaction (c) is such a case.

Cu + S → CuS

Cu in elemental state have a oxidation number of 0 and in CuS (copper sulfide) have a oxidation number of +2.

S in elemental state have a oxidation number of 0 and in CuS (copper sulfide) have a oxidation number of -2.

Cu + S → CuS is type of redox reaction. The correct option is (c) only

Redox reaction

A redox reaction also known as oxidation-reduction reaction is a type of chemical reaction that involves a transfer of electrons between two species.

  • For  (a) K2CrO4 + BaCl2 → BaCrO4 + 2KCl

The oxidation state of each of the elements did not change. Then, it is not a redox reaction

  • For b) Pb2+ + 2Br- → PbBr2

The oxidation state of each of the elements did not change. Then, it is not a redox reaction

  • For (c) Cu + S → CuS

The oxidation state of Cu changed from 0 to +2 and the oxidation state of S changed from 0 to -2. Then, it is a type of redox reaction.

Hence, Cu + S → CuS is type of redox reaction. The correct option is (c) only
