Consider the general oxidation of a species A in solution:
A A+ + e–.
The term oxidation potential is sometimes used to describe the ease with which species A is oxidized – the easier a species is to oxidize, the greater its oxidation potential. (a)What is the relationship between the standard oxidation potential of A and the standard reduction potential of A+? (b)Which of the metals listed in Table 4.5 has the highest standard oxidation potential? Which has the lowest? (c) For a series of substances, the trend in oxidation potential is often related to the trend in the first ionization energy. Explain why this relationship makes sense.
