Identify the compound which is oxidized in the following reaction:
H2S + Br2 = 2HBr + S

Answered by admin @



Answer:

Oxidation is defined as, the loss of electron or gain of oxygen or loss or hydrogen.

H2S + Br2 -------- 2HBr + S

In this reaction, sulfur in H2S is replaced by Br. It means that H2S has lost hydrogen, Therefore, the equation shows that hydrogen sulfide (H2S) compound is being oxidized in this chemical reaction and bromine is reduced into HBr.
