In the above reaction, the oxidation state of phosphoruschanges from ___-7-6-5-4-3-2-10+1+2+3+4+5+6+7 to ___-7-6-5-4-3-2-10+1+2+3+4+5+6+7.

How many electrons are transferred in the reaction?

3Zn(OH)2 + Xe+ OH-HXeO4- + 3Zn+ 3H2O

Explanation / Answer

3Zn(OH)2 + Xe+ OH----------->HXeO4- + 3Zn+ 3H2

The oxidation number of Zn change from +2 to 0

3Zn^2+   + 6e^----------------------> 3Zn

6 electrons are transferred

2.

Ni + Pb2+----------->Pb + Ni2+

The oxidation number of lead chnage from +2 to 0

Ni ---------------> Ni2^+ + 2e^-

Pb^2+ (aq) + 2e^- -------------> Pb(s)

2 electrons are transferred in the reaction

3.

3Cl2 + 2PH3+ 6OH----------->6Cl- + 2P+ 6H2O

the oxidation state of phosphorus changes from -3 to 0

3Cl2 + 6e^- -------------> 6Cl^-

6 electrons are transferred in the reaction
