Chapter 8, Problem 8I.14E

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The stronger oxidizing agents among fluorine and ozone have to be given.

Concept Introduction:

Electrode potential:

The potential related to each electrode refers to electrode potential.  If the species concentration participating in the electrode reaction is unity and the reaction occurs at $\text{298K}$ then the potential of the electrode refers to as Standard Electrode Potential ${\text{(E}}^{\text{0}}\text{)}\text{.}$  The electrode reaction is at unity when any gas participating in the particular electrode reaction is approximately 1 atmospheric pressure.

The larger the value of the electrode potential it is harder to get reduced that is it is good oxidizing agent.

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The condition (acidic or basic) that is carried out by the reaction has to be given.
