The correct Answer is:
To solve the given redox reaction and find the values of \( p \), \( q \), \( r \), \( s \), and \( t \) in the reaction: \[ p \text{Br}_2 + q \text{OH}^- \rightarrow r \text{Br}^- + s \text{BrO}_3^- + t \text{H}_2\text{O} \] we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Write the unbalanced reaction The unbalanced reaction is: \[ \text{Br}_2 + \text{OH}^- \rightarrow \text{Br}^- + \text{BrO}_3^- + \text{H}_2\text{O} \] ### Step 2: Assign oxidation states - For \( \text{Br}_2 \): 0 (elemental state) - For \( \text{Br}^- \): -1 - For \( \text{BrO}_3^- \): +5 (since each oxygen is -2 and the overall charge is -1) - For \( \text{OH}^- \): -1 (hydroxide ion) - For \( \text{H}_2\text{O} \): 0 (neutral) ### Step 3: Identify oxidation and reduction - \( \text{Br}_2 \) is reduced to \( \text{Br}^- \) (gain of electrons). - \( \text{Br}_2 \) is oxidized to \( \text{BrO}_3^- \) (loss of electrons). ### Step 4: Write half-reactions **Reduction half-reaction:** \[ \text{Br}_2 + 2e^- \rightarrow 2 \text{Br}^- \] **Oxidation half-reaction:** \[ \text{Br}_2 \rightarrow \text{BrO}_3^- + 10e^- \] ### Step 5: Balance the half-reactions 1. For the reduction half-reaction, we have: \[ \text{Br}_2 + 2e^- \rightarrow 2 \text{Br}^- \] (Multiply by 5 to balance with the oxidation half-reaction) 2. For the oxidation half-reaction, we have: \[ 5 \text{Br}_2 + 12 \text{OH}^- \rightarrow 10 \text{Br}^- + 2 \text{BrO}_3^- + 6 \text{H}_2\text{O} \] ### Step 6: Combine the half-reactions Combining the balanced half-reactions gives: \[ 5 \text{Br}_2 + 12 \text{OH}^- \rightarrow 10 \text{Br}^- + 2 \text{BrO}_3^- + 6 \text{H}_2\text{O} \] ### Step 7: Identify coefficients \( p, q, r, s, t \) From the balanced equation: - \( p = 5 \) - \( q = 12 \) - \( r = 10 \) - \( s = 2 \) - \( t = 6 \) ### Final Values Thus, the values are: - \( p = 5 \) - \( q = 12 \) - \( r = 10 \) - \( s = 2 \) - \( t = 6 \) ---

To solve the given redox reaction and find the values of \( p \), \( q \), \( r \), \( s \), and \( t \) in the reaction: \[ p \text{Br}_2 + q \text{OH}^- \rightarrow r \text{Br}^- + s \text{BrO}_3^- + t \text{H}_2\text{O} \] we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Write the unbalanced reaction The unbalanced reaction is: ...
