Answer» mical reaction which involves oxidation and reduction reactions are called redox reaction.Fluorine reacts with ICE to form hydrogen fluoride and HOF.The given chemical reaction is as follows.Let's give the oxidation numbers to the REACTANTS as well as products.From the above reaction, we observe that the oxidation number of F increases from 0 in to + 1 in HOF and also oxidation number drops from 0 in to -1 in HF. Therefore, F is oxidized and reduced in the above reaction. Therefore, this reaction is referred as redox reaction. |
