Use the charge
on a CO
3
2-
Fe is +2 Fe is +3 O is -2
Fe +2 to +3 oxidized
O from 0 to -2 reduced
O is 0
FeCO
3
is the REDUCING AGENT
O
2
is the OXIDIZING AGENT
CHEM131 - Spring 14 -March 13
Last Example
3
The oxidation number of an ion is the ion charge
2Al(s) + 3Cu
2+
(aq) ! 2Al
3+
(aq) + 3Cu(s)
Al 0 to 3+
Cu 2+ to 0
Balancing the ox #
2 x +3 = +6
3 x -2 = -6
Al is oxidized reducing agent
Cu
2+
is reduced oxidizing agent

Electrons are shared between the two atoms
Goal is to complete the OCTET (noble
gas conguration) by sharing electrons
Exceptions: less that an octet
H (2 electrons ! He)
Be
B
Expanded Octet using the d orbitals
for elements with n = 3 or greater
