Ni+2^ reacts with Mn, however, Al+3^ does not react with Mn. Rank the reducing agents in order of decreasing strength. Rank the oxidizing agents in order of decreasing strength. strongest oxidizing agent Ni2+^ + 2e-^ à Ni Mn2+^ + 2e-^ àMn Al3+^ + 3e-^ àAl strongest reducing agent
Cl 2 reacts with Br-, however, I 2 does not react with Br-. Rank the oxidizing agents in order of decreasing strength. Rank the reducing agents in order of decreasing strength. strongest oxidizing agent Cl 2 + 2e-^ à2Cl- Br 2 + 2e-^ à2Br- I 2 + 2e-^ à 2I-^ strongest reducing agent
Classify as oxidation, reduction or neither. a) SO 42 -^ à S^2 -^ reduction b) MnO 2 à MnO 4 -^ oxidation c) Cr 2 O 72 -^ à CrO 42 -^ neither d) IO 3 -^ à I 2 reduction
Given the following lab data SnCl 2 & Ni Spontaneous Ni(NO 3 ) 2 & Fe Spontaneous Cr(NO 3 ) 3 & Fe Non spontaneous. i) Write three balanced equations. Ni + Sn2+^ à Ni2+^ + Sn Fe + Ni2+^ à Fe2+^ + Ni Fe + Cr3+^ ß Fe2+^ + Cr ii) Rank the oxidizing agents in decreasing order of strength. strongest oxidizing agent Sn2+^ + 2e-^ à Sn Ni2+^ + 2e-^ à Ni Fe2+^ + 2e-^ à Fe Cr3+^ + 3e-^ à Cr strongest reducing agent iii) Rank the reducing agents in decreasing order of strength. See above. iv) Will SnCl 2 react with Cr? Explain? Yes, because Sn2+^ is a stronger oxidizing agent than Cr^3 + v) Will Fe2+^ react with Sn? No, because Fe2+^ is a weaker oxidizing agent than Sn2+
