Useually ina redox reaction one substance is oxidised and the toher is reduced can you thing of an inorganic compound which undergoes intramolecular redox reaction ? |

Answer» Solution :Intramolecularredox reaction can occur if the cation is oxidised nad the anin is reduced for EXAPLE decomposition of ammounium DICHROMATE may be regarded as an intrmolicular redox reaction in which O.N of N INCREASES form -3 to 0 nad that of Cr decreases from +6 to 3 i.e `NH_(4)^(+)` is oxidised to `N_(2)` while `Cr_(2)O_(7)^(2-)` is reduced to `Cr_(2)O_(3)` `(NH_(4))_(2)overset(+6)Cr_(2)O_(7) to overset(0)N_(2)+overset(+3)Cr_(2)O_(3)+4H_(2)O` |
