Wrap up/Launch

Determine the oxidation numbers of each element on each side of the redox reaction below and identify which element is being oxidized and which is being reduced. How many electrons are being transferred?

4NH₃ + 5O₂ --> 4NO +6H₂O

Electrons are transferred from one element to another during redox reactions.

Activity of an element can be determined by location on the periodic table.
