9.1.2 Deduce the oxidation number of an element in a compound.
• It may be easier to find what is being reduced and oxidized by splitting the equation into “half equations”.
• For example, with Zn(s) + 2H+(aq) → Zn2+(aq) + H2(g)
It can be split up as:Zn(s) → Zn2+(aq) + 2e-
and 2H+(aq) + 2e- → H2(g)

9.1.2 Deduce the oxidation number of an element in a compound.
Oxidation Number Rules– Elements in elemental state = 0– F = -1 (always)– O = -2 (except in H2O2 where its +1)– H = +1 (except in hydrides H-)– Halides = -1 except when bonded to oxygen or other halides
higher in the group (more reactive one will be -1)
The sum of the oxidation numbers in a neutral compound is 0.The sum of the oxidation numbers in a polyatomic ion is the
charge on the ion.

would be the anode?• Zinc would be the anode, lead is the cathode.

9.5.1 Describe, using a diagram, the essential components of an electrolytic cell.
Need to have a liquid containing ions, which is called an electrolyte. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pu9XZyQPsy0)

9.5.2 State that oxidation occurs at the positive electrode (anode) and reduction occurs at the negative electrode (cathode).
• The anode attracts anions.• When the anions reach they anode, they lose
electrons.• So are they oxidized or reduced?• A: oxidized• When cations reach the cathode they gain
electrons and they are reduced.

9.5.3 Describe how current is conducted in an electrolytic cell.
• Electricity is supplied from an external source and used to create a non-spontaneous reaction.
• Electrolyte solution can conduct electricity because the ions move towards oppositely charged electrodes.
• Electrons flow From Anode To CAThode (FATCAT)

9.5.4 Deduce the products of the electrolysis of a molten salt.
Sodium chloride• Negative chloride ions are attracted to the
positive ions. There they lose electrons and are oxidized to chlorine gas:
2Cl-(l) → Cl2(g) + 2e-
• Positive sodium ions are attracted to the negative cathode. They gain electrons and are reduced to sodium metal:
Na+(l) + e- → Na(l)

9.5.4 Deduce the products of the electrolysis of a molten salt.
QuestionFor every 2 mol of electrons that flow through
the circuit, how many mol of chlorine gas and sodium metal will be produced?
A: 1 mol of chlorine gas and 2 mol of sodium.
