Half Reaction Method, Balancing Redox Reactions In Basic & Acidic Solution, Chemistry

This chemistry video tutorial provides a basic introduction into the half reaction method which is useful for balancing redox reactions in basic solution and in acidic solution. This video shows all the steps needed to balance the oxidation reduction reaction. First, separate the reaction into two half reactions. Balance the number of atoms and the charge on both sides. In acidic solution, you can add H+ and H2O to balance the particles. In Basic solution, you can use OH- and H2O to do so. Add electrons to the side with the highest charge to balance the total charge on both sides of the chemical equation. Make sure the number of electrons are the same on both half reactions before adding the two to get the net reaction and that’s it.
