Balance the following equations in basic medium by ion electron method

1.	Balance the following equations in basic medium by ion electron method and oxidation number method and identify the oxidising agent and the reducing agent. N_(2)H_(4)(l)+ClO_(3)^(-)(aq)toNO(g)+Cl^(-)(g)
Answer» Solution : Balance these equations according to the steps discussed in and. The balanced equations, oxidising and REDUCING agents are as follows. `3N_(2)H_(4)(l)+4ClO_(3)^(-)(aq)to6NO(g)+4Cl^(-)(aq)+6H_(2)O(l)` `N_(2)H_(4)` acts as a reducing agent as it gets oxidised to NO, whereas `CIO_(3)^(-)` acts as an oxidising agent as it gets REDUCED to `CL^(-)`
