Using data from Table 17-1, place the following in order of increasing strength as reducing agents (all under standard conditions).
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The order of increasing strength as reducing agent for the given chemical species is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
The species with higher reduction potential undergoes reduction at the cathode and acts as an oxidizing agent while the species with lower reduction potential undergoes oxidation at the anode and acts as the reducing agent.
To determine: The order of increasing strength as reducing agent for the given species.
Explanation of Solution
The values of standard reduction potential for the given species are as follows,
