Question:

a. Write two half-equations for the following reactions. For each half-equation state whether oxidation or reduction is occurring.

i. Cl2 + 2I → I2 + 2Cl

ii. 2Mg + O2 → 2MgO

iii. 4Fe + 3O2 → 2Fe2O3

b. Zinc metal reacts with IO3-ions in acidic solution. Construct a balanced ionic equation for this reaction, using the two half-equations below:

2IO3- +12H+ + 10e → I2 + 6H2O

Zn → Zn2+ + 2e
