Oxidizing and Reducing Agents

Postby Alexandra Carpenter 1G » Wed Feb 21, 2018 11:40 pm

A worksheet asks, "Arrange the following species from greatest to least strength as an oxidizing agent: Li(s), Na(s), Ag(s), Fe^3+(aq).
How do we tell the difference, especially in transition metals?

Look at the standard cell potentials.

You'll find the standard cell potentials on the electrochemistry series (page 579 of textbook).
