What is the difference between acidic and basic solutions in working with
redox reactions?

A. The half-reactions are determined differently.

B. The reduction potentials are determined differently.

C. The charges don't have to balance when in acidic solution.

D. The O and H atoms are balanced differently.

So the only difference between reactions in basic and acidic conditions is that balancing reactions in a base, you would first balance it like how you would in an acid, but since you're in a basic solution now, you would add enough OH- to both sides of the equation to neutralize the H+.

I hope this helps!

The answer is D. The O and H atoms are balanced differently.

Balanced reaction

In a balanced chemical equation, the number of atoms on both sides of the reaction is equal.

The only difference between reactions in basic and acidic conditions is that balancing reactions in a base, first balance it like how you would in acid, but since you're in a basic solution now, you would add enough [tex]OH^{-}[/tex]to both sides of the equation to neutralize the [tex]H^{+}[/tex].
