Help with Ochem... I need to write the stoichiometric equations for the following redox ... the reduction of benzophenone by borohydride First show the 2 half redox stoichiometric equations from the reaction and then combine the 2 half reactions to show the final balance redox equation stoichiometrically. ***I do not need the structural mechanism...only the stoichiometric equations*** Additional info: use the following amounts 0.0025 mol C13H10O 0.100 g BH4 I've started with the unbalance equation: C13H10O + BH4 ------> C13H12O + BO3 -3 I also have this C13H10O ----> C13H12O (Reduction) BH4 -----> BO3 (Oxidation)

I need to write the stoichiometric equations for the following redox ... the reduction of benzophenone by borohydride
First show the 2 half redox stoichiometric equations from the reaction and then combine the 2 half reactions to show the final balance redox equation stoichiometrically.
***I do not need the structural mechanism...only the stoichiometric equations***
Additional info: use the following amounts
0.0025 mol C13H10O
0.100 g BH4
I've started with the unbalance equation:
C13H10O + BH4 ------> C13H12O + BO3 -3
I also have this
C13H10O ----> C13H12O (Reduction)
BH4 -----> BO3 (Oxidation)
