A FINAL COMMENT
When H is present, it must be treated like any other reactant. For example, if you are asked whether the
SO +4H +2e H₂SO3 + 2 H₂O
50 in a solution of Na₂SO will reduce:
+0.17
solution is "ACIDIC". In the same way that the reduction doesn't occur if SO is absent, there is no reaction if
your answer should be "there is no reaction UNLESS H* is present also", or equivalently, that the
Note that H* is a necessary reactant in many reduction reactions. However, there is only ONE reaction in
which H* is the only substance involved in the reduction half-reaction:
H* is absent.
2 H+2 eH₂(g)
0.00.
