Interpretation: The given redox reactions are to be classified as combination, decomposition, or displacement reactions.
Concept introduction:
A redox reaction is an oxidation–reduction reaction in which one species isreduced, while the other one is oxidized.
A
The reaction in which there is loss of electron is called oxidation reaction.
The reaction in which there is gain of electron is called reduction reaction.
Types of redox reactions are combination, decomposition, combustion, and displacement reactions.
The reaction in which one element is displaced by another metal ion is known as displacement reaction.
The reaction in which two or more elements are combined to form a product is known as combination reaction.
The reaction in which a compound is broken down into its component elements. The decomposition of peroxide is called disproportionate reaction.

- Describe in words how you would prepare pure crystalline AgCl and NaNO3 from solid AgNO3 and solid NaCl.arrow_forwardXenon trioxide, XeO3, reacts with aqueous base to form the xenate anion, HXeO4. This ion reacts further with OH to form the perxenate anion, XeO64, in the following reaction: 2HXeO4(aq)+2OH(aq)XeO64(aq)+Xe(g)+O2(g)+2H2O(l) Identify the elements that are oxidized and reduced in this reaction. You will note that the equation is balanced with respect to the number of atoms on either side. Verify that the redox part of this equation is also balanced, that is, that the extents of oxidation and reduction are also equal.arrow_forwardClassify each of the following reactions as a combination reaction, decomposition reaction, displacement reaction, or combustion reaction. a When they are heated, ammonium dichromate crystals, (NH4)2Cr2O7, decompose to give nitrogen, water vapor, and solid chromium(III) oxide, Cr2O3. b When aqueous ammonium nitrite, NH4NO2, is heated, it gives nitrogen and water vapor. c When gaseous ammonia, NH3, reacts with hydrogen chloride gas, HCl, fine crystals of ammonium chloride, NH4Cl, are formed. d Aluminum added to an aqueous solution of sulfuric acid, H2SO4, forms a solution of aluminum sulfate, A12(SO4)3. Hydrogen gas is released.arrow_forward
