Chapter 10, Problem 10.28P

Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The compound which is oxidized and the compound which is reduced in the reaction, ${\text{H}}_{\text{2}}\text{C}={\text{CH}}_{\text{2}}+{\text{H}}_{\text{2}}\stackrel{\text{Pd}/\text{C}}{\to }{\text{H}}_{\text{3}}\text{C}-{\text{CH}}_{\text{3}}$, are to be identified.

Concept introduction:

A redox reaction is a type of reaction in which one reacting species gets oxidize and other reacting species is reduced. The exchange of electron takes place between the reacting species. Water molecules and protons can be used to balance a redox chemical reaction in the acidic medium.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

The compound which is oxidized and the compound which is reduced in the reaction, ${\text{CH}}_3{\text{CH}}_{\text{2}}\text{Br}+{\text{Li}}^{+}{}^{-}{\text{AlH}}_{\text{4}}\to {\text{CH}}_3{\text{CH}}_{\text{3}}+{\text{Li}}^{+}{\text{Br}}^{-}+{\text{AlH}}_{\text{3}}$, are to be identified.
