To balance the given redox reaction in acidic medium, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the oxidation and reduction half-reactions. In the reaction: \[ \text{Cr}_2\text{O}_7^{2-} + \text{C}_2\text{O}_4^{2-} + \text{H}^+ \rightarrow \text{Cr}^{3+} + \text{CO}_2 + \text{H}_2\text{O} \] - **Oxidation half-reaction**: The oxidation state of carbon in oxalate (\( \text{C}_2\text{O}_4^{2-} \)) is +3, and it is oxidized to carbon dioxide (\( \text{CO}_2 \)), where the oxidation state of carbon is +4. ...
