Question

Substances T2, U2, and V2 can all act as oxidizing agents. And solution T2 is blue, U2 is green and V2 is red. In the reactions in which they participate, they are reduced to T-, U-, and V- ions all of which are colorless. when a solution of V2 is mixed with one containing U- ions, the color changes fron red to green.

a) which species is oxidized?

b) which is reduced?

when a solution of V2 is mixed with one containing T- ions, the color remains red.

c) which species is a better oxidizing agent, V2 or T2?

d) which species is a better oxidizing agent V2 or U2?

e) arrange T2, U2, and V2 in order of increasing strengeth of oxidizing agent.
