How to balance following redox reaction; I 2 + C 2 H 5 OH +OH - = CHI 3 +HCOO - +H 2 O +I - Please mention all steps.

Question

Vikas TU · Answer

First Write the half chemccal eqns of each compound and balance it.

Half-reactions:

3I2 + C2H5OH + 2OH- --> 2CHI3 + 3H2O + 2e-

This was for Iiodine

C2H5OH + 10OH- --> 2HCOO- + 7H2O + 8e-
This was for C2H5OH.

Now Adding both the eqns we get,

2C2H5OH + 3I2 + 12OH- -> 2CHI3 + 2HCOO- + 10H2O + 10e-

simply which would be the final balanced redox recation.
