Chemistry · Electronic concepts of oxidation and reduction, redox reactions, oxidation number, rules for assigning oxidation number and balancing of redox reactions
reaction is an example of :
\( \boldsymbol{C u} \boldsymbol{O}+\boldsymbol{H}_{2} \longrightarrow \boldsymbol{H}_{2} \boldsymbol{O}+\boldsymbol{C u}, \) reaction is an example of :
- A. redox reaction
- B. synthesis reaction
- C. neutralisation
- D. analysis reaction
Step-by-step solution
The reaction involves reduction of CuO to Cu (loss of oxygen) and oxidation of H2 to H2O (gain of oxygen), so both oxidation and reduction occur simultaneously, making it a redox reaction.
