What is the balanced equation for the redox reaction between copper and
sulfuric acid that forms copper(II)sulfate, sulfur dioxide, and water?

A. Cu + 4H+ + 25042- → Cu2+ + SO42+ + SO2 + 2H20 + 2e


B. Cu + 4H+ + 250_2 → Cu2+ + SO42+ + SO2 + 2H20


C. Cu + 2H+ + 25042- → Cu2+ + SO42+ + SO2 + H2O + 2H+


D. Cu + 2H+ + 250_2- + 2e →
Cu2+ + S022+ +502 + H20

Sagot :

Answer:C

Explanation:

When copper is heated with concentrated sulphuric acid. Concentrated sulphuric acid is an oxidising agent . When copper reacts with concentrated sulphuric acid sulphur dioxide is produced by the reduction of \[{H_2}S{O_4}\].
