(a) Interpretation: The stronger oxidizing agent needs to be identified between the following pair of oxidizing agents. Cr or Cd Concept introduction: Oxidizing agent is the species which oxides others and itself gets reduced in a chemical reaction . Thus, the more positive the standard potential more strongly the species can undergo reduction and act as a strong oxidizing agent.

Solution Summary: The author explains that the stronger oxidizing agent needs to be identified between the following two pairs: Cr, Cd, and Br.
Definition Definition Transformation of a chemical species into another chemical species. A chemical reaction consists of breaking existing bonds and forming new ones by changing the position of electrons. These reactions are best explained using a chemical equation.

Interpretation Introduction
(a)
Interpretation:
The stronger oxidizing agent needs to be identified between the following pair of oxidizing agents.
Cr or Cd
Concept introduction:
Oxidizing agent is the species which oxides others and itself gets reduced in a chemical reaction. Thus, the more positive the standard potential more strongly the species can undergo reduction and act as a strong oxidizing agent.
Interpretation Introduction
(b)
Interpretation:
The stronger oxidizing agent needs to be identified between the following pair of oxidizing agents.
I- or Br-
Concept introduction:
Oxidizing agent is the species which oxides others and itself gets reduced in a chemical reaction. Thus, the more positive the standard potential more strongly the species can undergo reduction and act as a strong oxidizing agent.
Interpretation Introduction
(c)
Interpretation:
The stronger oxidizing agent needs to be identified between the following pair of oxidizing agents.
OH- or NO2 - (basic solution)
Concept introduction:
Oxidizing agent is the species which oxides others and itself gets reduced in a chemical reaction. Thus, the more positive the standard potential more strongly the species can undergo reduction and act as a strong oxidizing agent.
Interpretation Introduction
(d)
Interpretation:
The stronger oxidizing agent needs to be identified between the following pair of oxidizing agents.
NO in acidic solution or NO in basic solution
Concept introduction:
Oxidizing agent is the species which oxides others and itself gets reduced in a chemical reaction. Thus, the more positive the standard potential more strongly the species can undergo reduction and act as a strong oxidizing agent.
