Hey there!
Na + H₂O → NaOH + H₂
First, balance O.
One on the left, one on the right. Already balanced.
Next, balance H.
Two on the left, three on the right. Let's add a coefficient of 2 in front of NaOH and a coefficient of 2 in front of H₂O, so we have 4 on each side.
Na + 2H₂O → 2NaOH + H₂
Lastly, balance Na.
One on the left, two on the right. Add a coefficient of 2 in front of Na.
2Na + 2H₂O → 2NaOH + H₂
This is our final balanced equation.
Hope this helps!
When the same species undergoes both oxidation and reduction in a single redox reaction, this is referred to as a disproportionation. Therefore, divide it into two equal reactions.
NO2→NO^−3
NO2→NO
and do the usual changes
First, balance the two half reactions:
3. NO2 +H2O →NO^−3 + 2 H^+ + e−
4. NO2 +2 H^+ + 2e− → NO + H2O
Now multiply one or both half-reactions to ensure that each has the same number of electrons. Here, Eqn (3) x 2 results in each half-reaction having two electrons:
5. 2 NO2 + 2 H2O → 2 NO^−3 + 4H^+ + 2e−
Now add Eqn 4 and 5 (the electrons now cancel each other):
3NO2 + 2H^+ + 2H2O → NO + 2 NO−3 + H2O + 4H+
and cancel terms that’s common to both sides:
3NO2 + H2O → NO + 2NO^−3 + 2H+
This is the net ionic equation describing the oxidation of NO2 to NO3 in basic solution.
