Question
Chapter 2, Problem 46P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
A balanced equation for the reaction between pentane and is to be written and the change or no change in oxidation state of carbon during the course of the reaction is to be determined.
Concept introduction:
If the number of atoms of each element is same on both sides of the chemical equation, then the chemical equation is balanced.
Oxidation state of an atom is the formal charge on it.
Oxidation state of an atom depends on the relative electronegativity of the atoms bonded to it.
