- Using Table 17.1, arrange the following reducing agents in order of increasing strength. Br- Zn Co PbSO4 H2S (acidic)arrow_forwardThe balanced half-reaction for Br2 BrO3 in basic solution is (a) 3 OH + Br2 2BrO3+ H2O + e (b) 12 OH + Br2 2 BrO3 + 6 H2O + 10 e (c) e + OH + Br2 2 BrO3 + H2O (d) l0e + Br2 + 6H2O 2BrO3 +6OHarrow_forwardConsider these half-reactions: (a) Which is the weakest oxidizing agent? (b) Which is the strongest oxidizing agent? (c) Which is the strongest reducing agent? (d) Which is the weakest reducing agent? (e) Will Sn(s) reduce Ag+(aq) to Ag(s)? (f) Will Hg() reduce Sn2+(aq) to Sn(s)? (g) Name the ions that can be reduced by Sn(s). (h) Which metals can be oxidized by Ag+(aq)?arrow_forward
- Order the following oxidizing agents by increasing strength under standard-state conditions: Mg2+(aq), Hg2+(aq), Pb2+(aq).arrow_forwardWrite balanced equations for the following half-reactions. Specify whether each is an oxidation or reduction. (a) Cr(s) Cr3+(aq)(in acid) (b) AsH3(g) As(s)(in acid) (c) VO3(aq) V2+(aq)(in acid) (d) Ag(s) Ag2O(s)(in base)arrow_forwardGalvanized steel pipes are used in the plumbing of many older homes. When copper plumbing is added to a system consisting of galvanized steel pipes it is necessary to place an insulator between the copper and the steel to avoid corrosion. Write a balanced oxidation-reduction equation for the reaction that occurs if the pipes are directly connected. What is the standard potential between the metals?arrow_forward
