Balancing Oxidation-Reduction Reactions
Any reaction involving the transfer of electrons is an oxidation-reduction (or redox) reaction
Definitions:
Oxidation is the loss of electrons.
Reduction is the gain of electrons.
Oxidation cannot take place without reduction.
During a redox reaction, the oxidation numbers of reactants will change.
For any equation to be balanced:
1. The number of atoms of each type on the left side of the arrow must equal the number of atoms of each type to the right of the arrow.
2. The total charges of all the ions on the left side of the arrow must equal the total charges of all the ions to the right of the arrow.
Balancing Oxidation-Reduction Reactions:
2. Write ‘bare bones’ half reactions.
Include only the atom, ion or element that changes oxidation number.
Cr+6 + 3e- Cr+3
C+3 C+4 + 1e-
Remember that each half reaction must also be balanced for charge. The total charges on the left must equal the total charges on the right.
Redox Stoichiometry
Calculations involving concentrations and redox reactions are quite common. Many ores containing metals are analyzed using redox titrations. Since many compounds change color as they are oxidized or reduced, one of the reactants may serve as the indicator in the titration.Redox Stoichiometry
The concentration of iron(II) can be determined by titration with bromate ion, in acid. The products are iron(III) ion and the bromide ion.
What is the concentration of iron(II) ion if 31.50 mL of 0.105M potassium bromate is required to completely react with 10.00 mL of the iron solution.
Redox Stoichiometry
The concentration of iron(II) can be determined by titration with bromate ion, in acid. The products are iron(III) ion and the bromide ion.
1. Write the balanced chemical reaction.
Fe2+(aq) + BrO31-(aq) Fe3+(aq) + Br1-(aq)
Balancing Oxidation-Reduction Reactions:
Assign oxidation numbers to every atom in the reaction.
Cr2O72- + C2O42- Cr3+ + COAn oxidation-reduction (redox) reaction is a type of chemical reaction that involves a transfer of electrons between two species. An oxidation-reduction reaction is any chemical reaction in which the oxidation number of a molecule, atom, or ion changes by gaining or losing an electron. Redox reactions are common and vital to some of the basic functions of life, including photosynthesis, respiration, combustion, and corrosion or rusting.
Rules for Assigning Oxidation States
The oxidation state (OS) of an element corresponds to the number of electrons, e-, that an atom loses, gains, or appears to use when joining with other atoms in compounds. In determining the oxidation state of an atom, there are seven guidelines to follow:
The oxidation state of an individual atom is 0.
The total oxidation state of all atoms in: a neutral species is 0 and in an ion is equal to the ion charge.
Group 1 metals have an oxidation state of +1 and Group 2 an oxidation state of +2
The oxidation state of fluorine is -1 in com

Antibiotic Stewardship by Anushri Srivastava.pptxAnushriSrivastav
Stewardship is the act of taking good care of something.
Antimicrobial stewardship is a coordinated program that promotes the appropriate use of antimicrobials (including antibiotics), improves patient outcomes, reduces microbial resistance, and decreases the spread of infections caused by multidrug-resistant organisms.
WHO launched the Global Antimicrobial Resistance and Use Surveillance System (GLASS) in 2015 to fill knowledge gaps and inform strategies at all levels.
ACCORDING TO apic.org,
Antimicrobial stewardship is a coordinated program that promotes the appropriate use of antimicrobials (including antibiotics), improves patient outcomes, reduces microbial resistance, and decreases the spread of infections caused by multidrug-resistant organisms.
ACCORDING TO pewtrusts.org,
Antibiotic stewardship refers to efforts in doctors’ offices, hospitals, long term care facilities, and other health care settings to ensure that antibiotics are used only when necessary and appropriate
According to WHO,
Antimicrobial stewardship is a systematic approach to educate and support health care professionals to follow evidence-based guidelines for prescribing and administering antimicrobials
In 1996, John McGowan and Dale Gerding first applied the term antimicrobial stewardship, where they suggested a causal association between antimicrobial agent use and resistance. They also focused on the urgency of large-scale controlled trials of antimicrobial-use regulation employing sophisticated epidemiologic methods, molecular typing, and precise resistance mechanism analysis.
Antimicrobial Stewardship(AMS) refers to the optimal selection, dosing, and duration of antimicrobial treatment resulting in the best clinical outcome with minimal side effects to the patients and minimal impact on subsequent resistance.
According to the 2019 report, in the US, more than 2.8 million antibiotic-resistant infections occur each year, and more than 35000 people die. In addition to this, it also mentioned that 223,900 cases of Clostridoides difficile occurred in 2017, of which 12800 people died. The report did not include viruses or parasites

Health Education on prevention of hypertensionRadhika kulvi
Hypertension is a chronic condition of concern due to its role in the causation of coronary heart diseases. Hypertension is a worldwide epidemic and important risk factor for coronary artery disease, stroke and renal diseases. Blood pressure is the force exerted by the blood against the walls of the blood vessels and is sufficient to maintain tissue perfusion during activity and rest. Hypertension is sustained elevation of BP. In adults, HTN exists when systolic blood pressure is equal to or greater than 140mmHg or diastolic BP is equal to or greater than 90mmHg. The

Medical Technology Tackles New Health Care Demand - Research Report - March 2...pchutichetpong
M Capital Group (“MCG”) predicts that with, against, despite, and even without the global pandemic, the medical technology (MedTech) industry shows signs of continuous healthy growth, driven by smaller, faster, and cheaper devices, growing demand for home-based applications, technological innovation, strategic acquisitions, investments, and SPAC listings. MCG predicts that this should reflects itself in annual growth of over 6%, well beyond 2028.
According to Chris Mouchabhani, Managing Partner at M Capital Group, “Despite all economic scenarios that one may consider, beyond overall economic shocks, medical technology should remain one of the most promising and robust sectors over the short to medium term and well beyond 2028.”
There is a movement towards home-based care for the elderly, next generation scanning and MRI devices, wearable technology, artificial intelligence incorporation, and online connectivity. Experts also see a focus on predictive, preventive, personalized, participatory, and precision medicine, with rising levels of integration of home care and technological innovation.
The average cost of treatment has been rising across the board, creating additional financial burdens to governments, healthcare providers and insurance companies. According to MCG, cost-per-inpatient-stay in the United States alone rose on average annually by over 13% between 2014 to 2021, leading MedTech to focus research efforts on optimized medical equipment at lower price points, whilst emphasizing portability and ease of use. Namely, 46% of the 1,008 medical technology companies in the 2021 MedTech Innovator (“MTI”) database are focusing on prevention, wellness, detection, or diagnosis, signaling a clear push for preventive care to also tackle costs.
In addition, there has also been a lasting impact on consumer and medical demand for home care, supported by the pandemic. Lockdowns, closure of care facilities, and healthcare systems subjected to capacity pressure, accelerated demand away from traditional inpatient care. Now, outpatient care solutions are driving industry production, with nearly 70% of recent diagnostics start-up companies producing products in areas such as ambulatory clinics, at-home care, and self-administered diagnostics.

3. Oxidation/Reduction
• Oxidation
• Gain of oxygen atoms
• Loss of hydrogen atoms
• LOSS OF ELECTRONS!
• Reduction
• Loss of oxygen atoms
• Gain of hydrogen atoms
• GAIN OF ELECTRONS
• There must be both oxidation and reduction processes for a
reaction to occur
Electrons are
transferred, not
‘lost’ or ‘gained
2/26/2020 3
4. Definition of terms
• Oxidizing agent (oxidant)
• Causes another species to be oxidized
• it is reduced!
• Reducing agent (reductant)
• Causes another species to be reduced
• it is oxidized!
2/26/2020 4
5. Oxidation Number (Oxidation State)
• Is the number that is assigned to each kind
of atom in a compound or ion of an
element.
• This represents the number of electrons that
have been gained, lost or shared by the
species.
2/26/2020 5
6. Rules of Assigning Oxidation Numbers
1. Any uncombined element or compound of same element is
assigned Oxidation Number of zero e.g. O, K, H2.
2. For a compound, the sum of all oxidation number of all atoms is
zero
3. For polyatomic ions, the sum of all oxidation numbers of all atoms
is equal to the charge on the ion.
4. All monoatomic ions are assigned oxidation number equal to the
charge on their ions.
5. When oxygen is present in compound or ion, it usually has an
oxidation number of -2 (exception include peroxides in which
oxygen has oxidation number of -1)
6. Hydrogen usually has oxidation number of +1 except in metal
Hydrides where H is -1)
2/26/2020 6
7. Rules of Assigning Oxidation Numbers
• To determine the oxidation number of an element
in a compound, the following procedures can be
followed.
• Example: Determine the oxidation number of
chromium in potassium dichromate (K2Cr2O7)
Atom Oxidation

K +1
Cr Unknown
O -2

8. Rules of Assigning Oxidation Numbers
• Multiply the oxidation number of each element by
appropriate subscript shown in the formula. Write
these total oxidation number below the
corresponding symbol in the formula.

10. Oxidation-Reduction Reaction
• These are sometimes called redox reactions.
• Oxidation and reduction reactions go hand in hand.
E.g. Ag+ + Fe2+ Ag(s) + Fe3+
• The oxidation number of Ag+ changes from +1 to
0, thus Ag+ is reduced. The oxidation number of
Fe2+changes from +2 to +3 thus Fe2+is oxidized.
• When one substance is being oxidized, the other
must be reduced.
2/26/2020 10
11. Oxidation – Reduction half reactions
• Oxidation-reduction reaction can be split into two
half-reactions
• The half-reactions show which species gains
electrons and which loses them.
Zn(s) + Cu2+
(aq) → Zn2+
(aq) + Cu(s)
• The half reactions for the above redox reaction
are;
Oxidation: Zn(s) →Zn2+
(aq) + 2e-
• Reduction: Cu2+
(aq) + 2e- → Cu(s)
2/26/2020 11
12. Balancing Oxidation – Reduction
Equations
• The redox reactions must be balanced in terms of number
of atoms and charges.
• It is a challenge to balance them by inspection
• To simplify the balancing redox reaction is separated into
its reduction and oxidation half reactions which are
balanced separately and then added together to obtain the
balanced equation for the overall reaction.
2/26/2020 12
13. The general procedure for balancing the redox
reactions
Example - Balance the following redox reaction
SO3
2-
(aq) + MnO4
-
(aq) → SO4
2-
(aq) + Mn2+
Step 1:
Identify the species being oxidized and the species being reduced from the changes
in their oxidation numbers. In this reaction, oxidation number of sulphur increase
from
+4 in SO3
2- to +6 in SO4
2- and that of Mn decreases from
+7 in MnO4
- to +2 in Mn2+.
Step 2:
Write the two skeletal (unbalanced) equations for the oxidation and reduction half
reactions.
Oxidation: SO3
2-
(aq) → SO4
2-
(aq)
Reduction: MnO4
-
(aq) → Mn2+
2/26/2020 13
14. 2/26/2020 14
Step 3:
Balance each half equation atomically in this order:
Start with atoms other than H and O (for this equation the
other atoms are already balanced)
Balance O atoms by adding H2O with appropriate coefficients.
— Oxidation: SO3
2-
(aq) + H2O → SO4
2-
(aq)
— Reduction: MnO4
-
(aq) → Mn2+ + 4H2O
Balance hydrogen atoms by adding H+ with appropriate
coefficients.
— Oxidation: SO3
2-
(aq) + H2O → SO4
2-
(aq) + 2H+
— Reduction: MnO4
-
(aq) + 8H+→ Mn2+ + 4H2O
15. 2/26/2020 15
Step 4:
• Balance each half equation “electrically”. Add the number
of necessary electrons to get the same electric charge on
both sides of each half equation.
Oxidation: SO3
2-
(aq) + H2O → SO4
2-
(aq) + 2H+ + 2e-
Reduction: MnO4
-
(aq) + 8H+ + 5e- → Mn2+ + 4H2O
Step 5:
• Multiply the half reactions by the simplest set of whole
numbers to balance the electrons.
Oxidation: 5SO3
2-
(aq) + 5H2O → 5SO4
2-
(aq) + 10H+ + 10e-
Reduction: 2MnO4
-
(aq) + 16H+ + 10e- → 2Mn2+ + 8H2O
16. 2/26/2020 16
Step 6:
Cancel electrons and equal amounts of any substance
that appear on both side of the equation
Oxidation: 5SO3
2-
(aq) + 5H2O → 5SO4
2-
(aq) + 10H+ +
10e-
Reduction: 2MnO4
-
(aq) + 16H+ + 10e- → 2Mn2+ +
8H2O
Step 7:
Write the net equation by adding the two equations
5SO3
2-
(aq) + 5H2O + 2MnO4
-
(aq) + 16H+ → 5SO4
2-
(aq) + 10H+ + 2Mn2+ + 8H2O
17. 2/26/2020 17
Step 8:
• Simplify the net equation so that the equation should not contain
the same species on both sides: Therefore, subtract 5H2O from
each side and 10H+ from each side.
5SO3
2-
(aq) + 2MnO4
-
(aq) + 6H+ → 5SO4
2-
(aq) + 2Mn2+ + 3H2O
Step 9: Verify if the equation is balanced.
Note:
• The reaction above is balanced in acidic solution.
If the reaction is carried out in basic solution,
OH- is added to both sides of the net equation in
step 8. Then the step 8 is repeated
18. Disproportionation Reaction
• In some redox reactions, the same substance is
both oxidized and reduced.
• These kinds of redox reactions are called
disproportionation reactions.
For example;
2H2O2(aq) → O2(g) + 2H2O
2/26/2020 18
20. 2/26/2020 20
• Electrochemical cells are either galvanic or electrolytic.
A galvanic cell or voltaic cell is an electrochemical cell
in which a spontaneous chemical reaction is used to
generate an electric current.
Technically, a battery is a collection of galvanic cells
joined in series.
An electrolytic cell is an electrochemical cell in which
electrical energy causes nonspontaneous redox reactions
to occur
It is a result of incorporating an external power source,
such as a battery, in the circuit to drive the reaction to
nonspontaneous direction.
21. Standard Potentials
• Standard potentials are also called standard
electrode potentials.
• Since they are always written for the reduction
half reactions, they also are sometimes called
standard reduction potentials.
• Different half-reactions have different
tendencies to occur.
2/26/2020 21
22. 2/26/2020 22
• To compare their tendencies to occur, the following conventions
have been developed:
Since the tendencies for half-reactions to proceed depend on the
temperature, the concentrations of the chemical species involved,
and, if gases are involved, the pressure in the half-cell, the
defined standard conditions are a temperature of 25 ˚C, a
concentration of exactly 1 M for all dissolved chemical species
involved, and a pressure of exactly 1 atm.
Because every cell consists of two half-cells, it is not possible to
measure the potential directly.
However, if the tendency of a certain half-reaction is assigned to
be zero, then the tendencies of all other half-reactions can be
determined relative to this reference half-reaction.
For that reason the half-reaction 2H+ + 2e- → H2 is the reference
half-reaction with the standard reduction potential of 0.0000 V.
26. Determination of Cell Potential
• The general steps for determining this potential
are presented and illustrated for the following cell
equation.
Cu(s) + Ag+
(aq)→ Ag(s)+ Cu2+
(aq)
Step 1: Write the equations representing the half- reactions
as extracted from the overall reaction given and label as an
oxidation and a reduction.
Oxidation: Cu(s)→Cu2+
(aq)+ 2e-
Reduction: Ag+
(aq) + e-→ Ag(s)

59. Industrial Pharmacy & Health-related use
of Electrolytic Processes
• At all stages of the development of electrochemistry, an intimate connection
existed between the development of theoretical concepts and the discovery
of solutions for a practical application of electrochemical processes and
phenomena.
• Theoretical investigations have been stimulated by the practical use of
various electrochemical phenomena and processes, and the theoretical
concepts that were developed have in turn contributed significantly to the
development of applied electrochemistry.
• Today, applied electrochemistry is of great value for the economy especially
in industrial pharmaceutical fields.
• Electrochemical phenomena and processes are useful for the quantitative
and qualitative chemical analysis of various substances and media, including
liquids, gases, and solids.
• The high accuracy of the electrochemical methods of analysis derives from
the fact that they are based on highly exact laws (e.g., those of Faraday).
60. • The methods of electrochemical analysis are instrumental.
• It is very convenient that electrical signals are used for the
perturbation: current, potential, and so on, and that the result (the
response) again is obtained as an electrical signal.
• This is the basis for the high speed and accuracy of the readings,
for the extensive possibilities of automated recording of the results,
as well as for automation of the entire analysis.
• Electrochemical methods of analysis are distinguished by their
high sensitivity, selectivity (the possibility of analyzing certain
substances in the presence of others), speed of the measurements,
and other advantages.
• In many cases extremely small volumes, less than 1 mL, of the test
solution will suffice for electrochemical analysis.
61. The following are the major groups of
electrochemical methods for chemical analysis:
1. Conductometry, which measures the electrical conductivity of the electrolyte
solution being examined
nonselective method of analysis; all types of mobile ion present in the
solution (or other medium being examined) contribute to conductivity
primarily useful when determining the concentrations in binary electrolyte
solutions (e.g., for determining the solubilities of poorly soluble
compounds)
used in particular for the titration of acids with base (and vice versa) in
colored and turbid solutions or solutions containing reducing and oxidizing
agents
Conductometric analysis is performed in both concentrated and dilute
solutions. Whose accuracy depends solution system that can monolayer,
binary or multicomponent system with corresponding accuracy
62. 2. Coulometry, which measures the amount of charge Q
consumed for the complete conversion (oxidation or
reduction) of the substance being examined
regarded as an analog of titration where the substance being
examined is quantitatively converted to a reaction product not by
the addition of titrant, but by a certain amount of electric charge Q
Electrochemical coulometers are based on the laws of Faraday;
with them the volume of gas or mercury liberated, which is
proportional to charge, is measured.
For coulometric analysis, the substance being examined must react
in 100% current yields [i.e., other (secondary) reactions must be
entirely absent].
63. 3. Voltammetry, which determines the steady-state or
transient polarization characteristics of electrodes in
reactions involving the substance being examined
In the transient voltammetric methods, one measures the
characteristic parameters on transient polarization curves after
some potential or current perturbation has been applied to the
electrode.
Many versions of transient methods of voltammetric analysis
using single or repetitive potential or current signals with different
shapes and amplitude have been described.
64. 4. Potentiometry, which measures the open-circuit equilibrium
potential of an indicator electrode, for which the substance
being examined is potential determining
suitable for the analysis of substances for which
electrochemical equilibrium is established at a suitable
indicator electrode at zero current
An important condition for potentiometry is high selectivity;
the electrode’s potential should respond only to the substance
being examined, not to other components in the solution.
This condition greatly restricts the possibilities of the version
of potentiometry described here when metal electrodes are
used as the indicator electrodes. The solution should be free of
ions of more electropositive metals and of the components of
other redox systems (in particular, dissolved air).
65. 5. The other pharmaceutical related uses of
electrochemistry include the following:
Purification procedures – though not significant but
takes place such as purification of water by
electroflotation displays highly valuable
pharmaceutical use
Medical applications - electrochemistry is able to
model a number of processes occurring in living
organisms, which in turn has led to progress in
fundamental medical science leading to widely use in
diagnosing various diseases.
