POST-LABORATORY QUESTIONS 1. For each reaction performed, write the balanced chemical reaction equation. Indicate the phase for each reactant and product. reactions that do not occur, write no reaction. 2. List the metals in order of ease of oxidation by H* (aq). Is there a relationship between this ordering and the placement of the metals on the periodic table? If so, why? 3. Use your ordering developed in this experiment to predict if the following reactions Indicate color under each of the species. For would occur: a. Aqueous iron(II) with solid copper b. Aqueous iron(II) with solid magnesium Aqueous iron(II) with solid zinc d. Aqueous zinc(II) with solid iron Aqueous zinc(II) with solıd magnesium C. 4. Given your answer to question 3, are such series helpful in general. Explain why or why not. How might you quantify such a series? (In other words, how might you assign some number that would help you place the metal activity series and the halogen activity series on the same scale. Hint: Use text or web to research reduction potentials.)

Xenon trioxide, XeO3, reacts with aqueous base to form the xenate anion, HXeO4. This ion reacts further with OH to form the perxenate anion, XeO64, in the following reaction: 2HXeO4(aq)+2OH(aq)XeO64(aq)+Xe(g)+O2(g)+2H2O(l) Identify the elements that are oxidized and reduced in this reaction.

The blood alcohol (C2H5OH) level can be determined by titrating a sample of blood plasma with an acidic potassium di-chromate solution, resulting in the production of Cr3+ (aq) and carbon dioxide. The reaction can be monitored because the dichromate ion (Cr2O72) is orange in solution, and the Cr3+ ion is green. The balanced equations is 16H+(aq) + 2Cr2O72(aq) + C2H5OH(aq) 4Cr4+(aq) + 2CO2(g) + 11H2O(l) This reaction is an oxidationreduction reaction. What species is reduced, and what species is oxidized? How many electrons are transferred in the balanced equation above?
