Help: Balance Nitrobenzene, FeSO4, H2SO4 = Aniline

Post by hbash00 »

Hello, I need to balance this eqn:
Nitrobenzene (over the arrow is FeSO4 and H2SO4) = Aniline
Its a redox reaction and I think I got the reduction couple right:
nitrobenzene + (6H+) + (6e-) = Aniline + 2H2O

But I don't know how to get the Oxidation part.
Please help[/b]
