Consider the general oxidation of a species A in solution:
Chapter , Problem 20.113(choose chapter or problem)
Consider the general oxidation of a species A in solution: A A+ + e-. The term oxidation potential is sometimes used to describe the ease with which species A is oxidized the easier a species is to oxidize, the greater its oxidation potential. (a) What is the relationship between the standard oxidation potential of A and the standard reduction potential of A+? (b) Which of the metals listed in Table 4.5 has the highest standard oxidation potential? Which has the lowest? (c) For a series of substances, the trend in oxidation potential is often related to the trend in the first ionization energy. Explain why this relationship makes sense.
