Ques. 1AIPMT 2008

On the basis of the following E values, the strongest oxidizing agent is [Fe(CN)6]4- [Fe(CN)6]3- + e-; E = -0.35 V Fe2+ Fe3+ + e-; E = -0.77 V

  1. Fe3+
  2. [Fe(CN)6]3-
  3. [Fe(CN)6]4-
  4. Fe2+

Answer

(1) Fe3+

Solution

The given values are oxidation potentials; reversing the reactions gives the standard reduction potentials:

[Fe(CN)6]3- + e- [Fe(CN)6]4-; E = +0.35 V

Fe3+ + e- Fe2+; E = +0.77 V

As per NCERT, the higher the standard reduction potential, the greater the tendency of the species to be reduced, i.e. the stronger the oxidising agent.

Fe3+ (highest reduction potential, +0.77 V) is the strongest oxidising agent.
