Question

Balance the following equations for a redox reaction that takes place in basic solution.

MnO2(s) + NaClO3(aq) + NaOH(aq) -----> NaMnO4(aq) + NaCl(aq) + H2O(l)

N2O(g) + KClO(aq) + KOH(aq) -----> KCl (aq) + KNO2(aq) + H2O(l)

I think I have the answers but I need confirmation.

Answer 1

Best Answer:

1. MnO2(s) + NaClO3(aq) + NaOH(aq) → NaMnO4(aq) + NaCl(aq) + H2O (l) 2. N2O(g) + 2 KClO(aq) + 2 KOH(aq) → 2 KCl(aq) + 2 KNO2(aq) + H2O(l)
