Question

Balance the following redox reactions. For each one, identify the reducing agent and the oxidizing agent.​

SCN– + (BrO3)– --> Br– + (SO4)2– + HCN​

Answer 1

ans)

from above data that

the given reaction is

SCN– + (BrO3)– --> Br– + (SO4)2– + HCN​

so the Balanced equation is

SCN^- + BrO₃^- + H₂O = Br^- + SO₄^2-+ HCN + H⁺

so from above information

SCN- act as reducing agent. It reduces Br, +5 to Br-

BrO3- act as oxidising agent, It oxidises S, +2 to +4
