Useually ina redox reaction one substance is oxidised and the other is reduced. can you think of an inorganic compound which undergoes intramolecular redox reaction ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Intramolecular redox reaction can occur if the cation is oxidised nad the anin is reduced for exaple decomposition of ammounium dichromate may be regarded as an intrmolicular redox reaction in which O.N of N increases form -3 to 0 nad that of Cr decreases from +6 to 3 i.e
`NH_(4)^(+)` is oxidised to `N_(2)` while `Cr_(2)O_(7)^(2-)` is reduced to `Cr_(2)O_(3)`
`(NH_(4))_(2)overset(+6)Cr_(2)O_(7) to overset(0)N_(2)+overset(+3)Cr_(2)O_(3)+4H_(2)O`

A redox reaction is one in which

Which of the following is not an intramolecular redox reaction?

Cartain materials such as turpentine oil, unsaturated organic compound, phosophorus, metals such as Zn , and Pb , etc., can absorb O_(2) from air in the presence of H_(2)O , which is converted to absorb O_(2) from air in the presence of H_(2)O , which is converted to H_(2)O_(2) . This is called autoxidation. Intermolecular redox reactions are those in which one molecule is oxidised and the other is reduced. Intramolecular redox reactions are those in which oen atom of a molecule is oxidised and the other atom is reduced. Which of the following reactions is//are intramolecular redox reactions (s) ?
