Question

PLEASE AMSWER ALL QUESTIONS:) will leave good rating if everything is answers correctly and quickly!!!!!

Complete the table given that the following three reactions occur in the direction as written

a) 2Li +Fe2+ = 2Li+   + Fe

b) 2Li + Pb2+   = 2Li+ +   Pb

c) Fe + Pb2+ = Fe2+   + Pb

Based on the three reactions, rank the oxidizing and reducing agents in order of strength

In the following reaction, identify the atom that is reduced and the atom that is oxidized

Bi2O3 +   2NO-3   + 2OH-   = 2BiO-3   + 2NO-2   + H2O

Atom reduced__________ atom oxidized_________________

Reaction Species reduced species oxidized reducing agent oxidizing agent a) b) c)

Explanation / Answer

0 +2 +1 0

2Li + Fe2+ --> 2Li+ + Fe

Fe2+ is reduced & Li is oxidized

Li reduces Fe2+ so Li is a reducing agent

Fe2+ oxidizes Li so Fe2+ is oxidizing agent

0 +2 +1 0

2Li + Pb2+ --> 2Li+ + Pb

Pb2+ is reduced & Li is oxidized

Li reduces Pb2+ so Li is a reducing agent

Pb2+ oxidizes Li so Pb2+ is oxidizing agent

0 +2 +2 0

Fe + Pb2+ --> Fe2+ + Pb

Fe2+ is reduced & Fe is oxidized

Fe reduces Pb2+ so Fe is a reducing agent

Pb2+ oxidizes Fe so Pb2+ is oxidizing agent

On comparing these threee equations ,

Li reduces Fe2+ & Pb2+ and also Fe reduces Pb2+ so the

strongest reducing agent is Li

intermediate reducing agent is Fe

weakest reducing agent is Pb

strongest oxidizing agent is Pb2+

intermediate oxidizing agent is Fe2+

weakest oxidizing agent is Li+

+3 +5 +5 +3

Bi2O3 +   2NO-3   + 2OH- ------> 2BiO-3   + 2NO-2   + H2O

Here the oxidation state of Bi increases from +3 to +5, So Bi is oxidized

The oxidation state of N decreases from +5 to +3 so N is reduced
