Question 10 • EDG CHEM ES W/LABS2(P) – Q2_9
An oxidizing agent gains electrons, so the stronger oxidizing agent is more easily reduced. Ag⁺ has a higher standard reduction potential (about +0.80 V) than Fe²⁺ (about −0.44 V), so Ag⁺ is more readily reduced. Therefore, Ag⁺ is the stronger oxidizing agent.
