(A) Oxidation 1/2 reaction:

C2H5OH + H2O ----------> C2H5OOH + 4 H+ + 4e-

(B) Reduction 1/2 reaction:

Cr2O72- + 6e- + 14H+ ---------> 2Cr3+ + 7H2O

(c) Over all reaction

16H+ + 2Cr2O72- + 3C2H5OH ---------> 3C2H5OOH + 4Cr2+ + 11H2O

2.

(A) Oxidation

SnO22- + 2OH- ---------> SnO32- + H2O + 2e-

(b) Reduction

Fe(OH)3 + 3e- ---------> Fe + 3OH-

(C) Net reaction

2Fe(OH)3 + 3SnO22- + 6OH- --------> 2Fe + 3SnO32- + 3H2O
