To balance the given redox reaction, we'll follow the half-reaction method. We'll first balance the oxidation half-reaction and then the reduction half-reaction, making sure that the number of electrons transferred is the same in both reactions.
Step 1: Write the unbalanced oxidation and reduction half-reactions.
Oxidation half-reaction: FeS2(s) -> Fe^2+(aq) + SO4^2-(aq)
Reduction half-reaction: O2(g) + 4H2O(l) + 4e^- -> 4OH^-(aq)
Step 2: Balance the atoms in each half-reaction, excluding oxygen and hydrogen.
Oxidation half-reaction (Fe): FeS2(s) -> Fe^2+(aq) + SO4^2-(aq)
Reduction half-reaction (O): O2(g) + 2H2O(l) + 4e^- -> 4OH^-(aq)
Step 3: Balance oxygen atoms by adding H2O to the side that needs oxygen.
Oxidation half-reaction (Fe): FeS2(s) -> Fe^2+(aq) + SO4^2-(aq)
Reduction half-reaction (O): O2(g) + 4H2O(l) + 4e^- -> 4OH^-(aq)
Step 4: Balance hydrogen atoms by adding H^+ to the side that needs hydrogen.
Oxidation half-reaction (Fe): FeS2(s) -> Fe^2+(aq) + SO4^2-(aq)
Reduction half-reaction (O): O2(g) + 4H2O(l) + 4e^- -> 4OH^-(aq) + 4H^+(aq)
Step 5: Balance the charge by adding electrons to the side that needs them.
Oxidation half-reaction (Fe): FeS2(s) -> Fe^2+(aq) + SO4^2-(aq) + 4e^-
Reduction half-reaction (O): O2(g) + 4H2O(l) + 4e^- -> 4OH^-(aq) + 4H^+(aq)
Step 6: Now, equalize the number of electrons transferred in both half-reactions.
To do this, we need to multiply the oxidation half-reaction by 4 and the reduction half-reaction by 1.
Balanced oxidation half-reaction: 4FeS2(s) -> 4Fe^2+(aq) + 4SO4^2-(aq) + 16e^-
Balanced reduction half-reaction: O2(g) + 4H2O(l) + 4e^- -> 4OH^-(aq) + 4H^+(aq)
Step 7: Add the two balanced half-reactions together.
4FeS2(s) + O2(g) + 4H2O(l) -> 4Fe^2+(aq) + 4SO4^2-(aq) + 4OH^-(aq) + 4H^+(aq)
Finally, the balanced overall redox reaction is: 4FeS2(s) + O2(g) + 4H2O(l) -> 4Fe^2+(aq) + 4SO4^2-(aq) + 4OH^-(aq) + 4H^+(aq)
