Balancing Basic Redox Reactions requires all the same steps as balancing in an acidic solution plus an additional step.
Concept #1: Balancing Redox Reactions: Basic Solutions
Basic Redox Reactions generally have the presence of an OH– ion.
Example #1: Balance the following redox reaction if it is found to be in a basic solution.
