1. Using a table of standard reduction potentials, standard
conditions are assumed.
(a) Arrange the following chemical species: Zn(s),
Cl-(aq), Cu(s), K(s), and H2(g) in order of
their ease of oxidation, from easiest to oxidize to hardest to
oxidize.
(b) Arrange the following chemical species: H+(aq),
I2(s), Na+(aq), Ag+(aq), and
H2O(l) in order of their ease of reduction, from easiest
to reduce to hardest to reduce.
2. Which of the following reactions is/are product favored?
Zn(s) + I2(s) ? Zn+2...
