Naming of corresponding redox pairs?

Hi!

I'm totally lost and a complete chemistry failure. Now we've been given the task:

Name the corresponding redox pairs of the following reactions

A: Combustion of calcium

B: Reaction of sodium and bromine

C: Reduction of copper oxide (CuO) with iron.

I don't understand a thing. Would someone please help me? 😅

set the reaction equations and then you will see immediately what is reduced and what is oxidized:

1) from calcium and oxygen becomes calcium oxide

2) Sodium and bromine react to sodium bromide

3) Iron and copper oxide react to iron oxide and copper.

Then you have to look at the corresponding pages in your book again, because this is certainly relevant to the examination.

Ca <=> Ca(2+) + 2 e-

O +2e- <=> O(2-)

Na <=> Na(+) + e-

Br +e- <=> Br(-)

No chance. The theme RedOx is definitely too complex for a bit of self-sponsored learning. This isn’t even the case here in a forum. Find a qualified learning partner or take some hours of assistance with a professional.

Sorry, I’d like to give you more hope.
