SO 1-
Step 1: Write the "skeleton" half-equation based on the species undergoing oxidation and
reduction.
Oxidation :
Reduction : k
Step 2: Balance each half-equation 'atomically in the order
a) atoms other than H and O
SO
D) O atoms by adding H,0 with the appropriate coefficient; H atoms by adding H* with
the appropriate coefficient.
S + 4 H;0
+ SO + 8H-

Step 3:
Examine the charge on both sides of the half-reaction. To the more positive side add
the correct number of electrons to equalize the charge with the other side.
s* • 4 H:0
2 + 2e
+SOP • 8H • 8 e
Step 4: Multiply each entire half-reaction by the lowest factor to equalize the number of
electrons lost and gained.
1 [ S* + 4 H;0
4[ a • 2e-
SO + 8H • 8e ·]
→ 21· ]
Step 5: Obtain the net redox equation by combining the half-equations. Make all possible
cancellations.

SO + 81.. 8 H-
Step 6: Change from acidic to a basic medium by adding OH to both sides of the net equation;
combining H* and OH to form H;0 and simplify.
8 OH • S • 4 12 + 4 H:0
SO • 8t + 8H 8 OH
8 H;0
8 OH + S*+ 4h + 44.0
The final balanced equation is:
