Rank these species by their ability to act as an oxidizing agent. cu+ mg2+ fe2+

Explanation:

The species or elements which gain electrons and reduces itself are known as oxidizing agent or oxidant.

Ability of an element to act as an oxidizing agent depends on its electrode potential.

The electrode potential of is 0.52 V.

The electrode potential of is -0.41 V.

The electrode potential of is -2.38 V.

Greater is the value of electrode potential, stronger will be the oxidizing agent.

Therefore, rank of these species by their ability to act as an oxidizing agent are as follows.

the old alchemists made significant contributions to science even though there starting premises were off a bit. their conclusions after failure would steer them into better directions for investigation. science is no more than close observation and the initial mistakes result in rethinking and retrying experiments.

b. accuracy of the data matters alot more than its number of digits, organization or amount of detail. quantitative observation is more accepted than the qualitative observation.
