This reaction is a redox reaction where acetaldehyde (CH3CHO) is oxidized to acetic acid (CH3COOH) while silver oxide (Ag2O) is reduced to silver (Ag). The balanced equation for this reaction is:
2 CH3CHO + 3 Ag2O → 2 CH3COOH + 4 Ag
Overall, this reaction involves the transfer of electrons from acetaldehyde to silver oxide, resulting in the formation of acetic acid and silver.
