In most cases, oxidation number valence but: CrO5, Fe3O4 2.Redox Reaction Redox reaction: the reaction that electrons are transferred from one object to another, and oxidation numbers change increase or decrease The loss of electrons →oxidation number increase→ oxidized→ reducing agent e.g. active metal, H2, C The gain of electrons →oxidation number decrease→ reduced→ oxidizing agent e.g. active nonmetal 2.Redox Reaction Notice: ⑴ Oxidation is always accompanied by reduction; ⑵ The number of electrons lost by oxidation reaction is always equal to the number of electrons gained by reduction reaction. 3.Electrochemical Cell Electrochemistry: the area of chemistry that deals with the interconversion of electrical energy and chemical energy. In this unit we’ll discuss electrochemical cell 原电池 and electrolytic cell 电解池 . electrical chemical energy energy 3.Electrochemical Cell Electrochemical cell galvanic cell, voltaic cell 原电池 : the experimental apparatus that can convert the chemical energy into the electrical energy. Electrochemical cell: uses the energy released from a spontaneous redox reaction to generate electricity. Electrochemical cell is based on spontaneous redox reaction . 4.Balancing Redox Reaction How to balance a redox reaction Oxidation Number Method Ion-electron Method 4.Balancing Redox Reaction Ion-electron Metho
