Interpretation:
Half cell reactions are to be written for a given
Concept introduction:
A redox reaction is a combination of oxidation half reaction and reduction half reaction.
Oxidation half reaction involves loss of electrons and reduction half reaction involves gain of reaction. Both processes occur simultaneously.

Answer to Problem 2STP
C
Explanation of Solution
The given chemical equation is:
The oxidation number of the atoms involved in chemical equation is:
Thus oxidation number shows that
Change in oxidation number of
Change in oxidation number of
Therefore,
Oxidation half reaction:
Reduction half reaction:
Thus, oxidation half reaction contains the species which involves loss of electrons and reduction half reaction involves the species which involves gain of electrons.
Thus option C is correct and others are incorrect.
