Select the nature or type of redox change in the following reactions :(a) 2 Cu+ -----> Cu2+ + Cu0 (b) Cl2 ---------> ClO- + Cl- (c) 2KClO3  --------> 2KCl + 3O2 (d) (NH4)2 Cr2O7  -------> N2 + Cr2O3 + 4 H2O(e) 10FeSO4 + 2 KMnO4 + 8H2 SO4 ------> 2MnSO4 + 5 Fe2 (SO4)3 + K2 SO4 + 8H2 O(f) 5H2C2 O4 + 2KMnO4 + 3H2 SO4 ------> K2 SO4 + 2 MnSO4 + 10CO2 + 8H2O

Answer»

(i) (a) and (b) represents auto-redox or disproportionation in which same substance is oxidised and reduced as well.

(ii) (c) and (d) represents intramolecular redox change in which one element of a compound is oxidised and the other element is reduced.

(iii) (e) and (f) represents intermolecular redox in which one of the two reactant is oxidised and other is reduced.
