1)
Hydrogen can be used a reducing agent and also an oxidizing agent.
When acting as an reducing agent, hydrogen peroxide is oxidizing to oxygen gas,where the oxidation number of O increases from -1 to 0.
When acting as an oxidizing agent, hydrogen peroxide is reduced to water in anacidic medium or to hydroxide ion in an alkaline medium, where the oxidationnumber of O decreases from -1 to -2.
Hydrogen peroxide acts as an oxidizing agent when reacting with dye. Theequation is :
dye + H2O2 → [dye + O] + H2O
2)
The lattice of Fe3O4 contains both iron(II) ions and iron(III)ions in ratio 1 : 1. The formula of can be written as FeO•Fe2O3.
The oxidation number of Fe in FeO = +2
The oxidation number of Fe in Fe2O3 = +3
The oxidation number of Fe in Fe3O4 is +2 and +3.
3)
The equation of the reaction between chlorine gas and water :
Cl2 + H2O ⇌ HCl + HOCl
In the reduction of Cl2 to HCl, the oxidation number of Cl decreasesfrom 0 to -1.
In the oxidation of Cl2 to HOCl, the oxidation number of Clincreases from 0 to +1.
As Cl2 undergoes both oxidation and reduction, the reaction isdisproportionation.
4)
The electronic configuration of boron is B : 2, 3
Boron has only 3 outermost shell electrons. When boron reacts with fluorine,boron trifluoride (BF3) is formed. The 3 outermost shell electrons ofboron forms 3 covalent bonds with fluorine atoms.
5)
Boron trifluoride is unstable because it has only 6 electrons in the outermostshell of the central B atom, but not an octet. It can be stabilized to attainan octet by forming complex. Forexample, BF3 reacts with NH3 to form complex H3N→NF3.
