Redox and Combustion:Redox and Combustion:At the conclusion of our time together, At the conclusion of our time together,
you should be able to:you should be able to:
1.1. Identify a basic combustion reactionIdentify a basic combustion reaction2.2. Balance a combustion reactionBalance a combustion reaction3.3. Show the change in oxidation numbers for Show the change in oxidation numbers for
a combustion reactiona combustion reaction
5. Combustion Reactions5. Combustion Reactions
• Combustion reactions Combustion reactions occur when a hydrocarbon occur when a hydrocarbon reacts with oxygen gas.reacts with oxygen gas.
• This is also called This is also called burning!!! In order to burn burning!!! In order to burn something you need the 3 something you need the 3 things in the “fire things in the “fire triangle”:triangle”:
•
1) A Fuel (hydrocarbon)1) A Fuel (hydrocarbon)2) Oxygen to burn it with2) Oxygen to burn it with3) Something to ignite the 3) Something to ignite the reaction (spark)reaction (spark)
Combustion ReactionsCombustion Reactions
• In general: In general: CCxxHHy y + O+ O2 2 CO CO2 2 + H+ H22OO
• Products in combustion are Products in combustion are ALWAYS carbon dioxide and ALWAYS carbon dioxide and water. (although incomplete water. (although incomplete burning does cause some burning does cause some by-products like carbon by-products like carbon monoxide)monoxide)
• Combustion is used to heat Combustion is used to heat homes and run automobiles homes and run automobiles (octane, as in gasoline, is (octane, as in gasoline, is CC88HH1818) )

• Show the change in oxidation numbers:Show the change in oxidation numbers:• CC-4-4 C C+4+4
• Each carbon loses 8 electrons – oxidation, reducing agent
• O O O O2-2-
• Each oxygen gains 2 electrons – reduction, oxidizing agent
