Question
Chapter 21, Problem 21.61SP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The increasing order of substances in term of strength as a reducing agent is to be determined.
Concept introduction:
A reducing agent is defined as an atom of element capable of reducing others and itself gets oxidized. In reduction, gain of electrons takes place and in oxidation loss of electrons takes place.
