Help with redox reaction equations Plz

Post by python01 »

I have to do lab at school for which I will have to do redox equations but I am not sure where to start at the moment so hopefully someone can help me with them so I understand what I am doing in the lab.
Here are three different reactions for which I need the equations:
Reaction 1:
Solution 1: 20 drops of 0.05M Fe(II) and 2 drops of 6M H2SO4
Solution 2: Count drops of 0.01M KMnO4
Reaction 2:
Solution 1: 20 drops of 0.05M Na2C2O4 and 2 drops of 6M H2SO4
Solution 2: Count drops of 0.01M KMnO4
Reaction 3:
Solution 1: A few crystals of KNO2, 20 drops of distilled water and 2 drops of 6M H2SO4
Solution 2: Count drops of 0.01M K2Cr2O7

Can anyone suggest equations for these reaction so I can figure out how the H2SO4 will affect these reactions. I am not sure where to start. :?:

FeSO4 + KMnO4 + H2SO4 = Fe2(SO4)3 + K2SO4 + MnSO4 + H2O

Na2C2O4 + KMnO4 + H2SO4 = Na2SO4 + K2SO4 + MnSO4 + CO2 + H2O

KNO2 + K2Cr2O7 + H2SO4 = KNO3 + K2SO4 + Cr2(SO4)3 + H2O

The equations that I wrote above are NOT balanced
You may balance these equations here
