Question 1.
What defines the electrochemical series?
Show hintHide hint
Think about how we measure the ability of elements in reactions.
Question 2.
Identify the substance that acts as an oxidizing agent.
Show hintHide hint
Consider what happens during a reduction reaction.
3Question 3.
What is the primary purpose of the electrochemical series?
- To measure temperature changes
- To predict redox reaction outcomes
- To balance chemical equations
Show hintHide hint
Consider what the series lists and how it relates to chemical reactions.
4Question 4.
Oxidizing agents are defined as substances that:
- True
- False
Show hintHide hint
Remember the definition of an oxidizing agent.
Question 5.
Given a galvanic cell with copper and zinc electrodes, base your reasoning from the electrochemical series to explain which metal acts as the anode and which as the cathode.
Show hintHide hint
Consult the series values for these metals.
Question 6.
Considering two half-reactions: Fe²⁺ + 2e⁻ → Fe (E° = -0.44 V) and 2H⁺ + 2e⁻ → H₂ (E° = 0.00 V), determine which metal can act as a reducing agent.
