Consider your experimental results from part A of this lab. Suppose your strongest reducing agent were added to your strongest oxidizing agent. (Use the lowest possible coefficients. Omit states- of-matter from your answers.)
(a) Write the half-reaction for your strongest reducing agent.
(b) Write the half-reaction for your strongest oxidizing agent.
(c) Note the number of electrons in each half reaction.
In order to balance the number of electrons lost and gained, the oxidation half-
| reaction must be multiplied by | five, | five, | | and the reduction half- | reaction must be multiplied by | two. | two. | |
Students should always be careful of the chemical reaction between jewelry and laboratory reagents. The Standard Reduction Potentials Table shows the reduction reactions and potentials for some common lab reagents and metals.
(a) What is the net redox reaction that occurs when Au comes into contact with acidic KMnO4? (Use the lowest possible coefficients. Omit states-of-matter from your answer.)
During part B of your lab, you measured electrochemical cell potentials with a Cu2+/Cu couple as the anode. Predict the results you would observe if Zn2+/Zn were the anode.
In part B of Lab 11, you measured the voltage of several galvanic cells.
Assemble a battery, represented by the diagram below with the cathode in compartment A, with Zn2+/Zn and Fe2+/Fe couples in which the voltage reads positive. (Use the Standard Reduction Potentials Table. Use the lowest possible coefficients. Omit states-of-matter from your answer.)
In Lab 9, students performed acid-base titrations. Redox reactions can also be used in titrations. An example is the titration of ascorbic acid (H2C6H6O6) in lemon juice using triiodide (I3– ). A starch indicator will turn the solution blue-black at the endpoint. The half-reactions involved are shown below.
(a) What is the net redox reaction that occurs? (Use the lowest possible coefficients. Omit states-of-matter from your answer.)
(b) What is the stoichiometry of H2C6H6O6 to I3–?
(c) Use the data given below to determine the amount of ascorbic acid in lemon juice. (Note: The recommended daily allowance of ascorbic acid (Vitamin C) is 90 mg.)
