So, your saying that I'm missing something in that given equation? But it was given to us like that , the teacher's didn't state any problems within the question itself...

Hello, I came across this question and couldn't resolve it using the oxidation number method. Fe2+ + H2O2 --> Fe3+ + H2O Using half equations to balance it out, I got the right answer, though using the oxidation number method I got an alternate answer. Now the Iron is being oxidized, and the O2 is being reduced, with the oxidation number difference of 1 for both elements... What am I missing? The difference of oxidation number for oxygen should be 2... but I can't see how that works...

Hellooo, I'm Tree , I like finding things on the internet that keep me occupied, Science being one of them. This Science forum seems awesome hope I can make some friends Thanks Admin xD, and have a nice day everyone!
