(iii) `FeS_(2) + O_(2) to Fe_(2)O_(3) + SO_(2)`

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To balance the chemical equation `FeS₂ + O₂ → Fe₂O₃ + SO₂` using the oxidation number method, follow these steps: ### Step 1: Assign Oxidation Numbers - **Iron (Fe)** in `FeS₂`: Each Fe is in the +2 oxidation state. - **Sulfur (S)** in `FeS₂`: Each S is in the -1 oxidation state. - **Oxygen (O)** in `O₂`: O is in the 0 oxidation state (elemental form). - **Iron (Fe)** in `Fe₂O₃`: Each Fe is in the +3 oxidation state. - **Sulfur (S)** in `SO₂`: Each S is in the +4 oxidation state. ...
