CONCEPTUAL
Consider the following species in acidic solution: MnO_{4}^{-}, I^{-}, NO_{3}^{-}, H_{2}S, and Fe^{2+}. Using Table 17.1,
Table 17.1 Standard Potentials in Water Solution at 25°C
Lithium is the strongest reducing agent.
O = strongest oxidizing agent;
Fluorine is the strongest oxidizing agent.
Lithium and fluorine are very dangerous materials to work with.

ⓐ classify each of these as an oxidizing and/or reducing agent.
ⓑ arrange the oxidizing agents in order of increasing strength.
ⓒ do the same with the reducing agents.
ⓐ
STRATEGY
Recall that the oxidizing agents are located in the left column of Table 17.1 and the reducing agents are in the right column of the same table.
