2 AnswersPhysics9 years agoCan someone explain to me why we add electrons and H+ into redox reactions?
when doing redox reactions, we are doing half reactions then eliminating stuff to get the final answer.
Ex: C6H5CH2OH+ KMnO4 ---> (KOH above arrow) C6H5CO2K+MnO2
so for the first half reaction you get KOH+ C7H80 ---> C7H5O2K+ 4H+ +4E-
second half reaction: 3H+ + 3E- + KMnO4---> MnO2+KOH+H20
I know i'm over thinking this, but where do the electrons come from?!
Thanks!
