  1. Question 1

    A redox reaction is feasible when the overall standard cell potential is:

    • APositive
    • BNegative
    • CZero
    • DExactly 1.00 V
    Show answer

    Answer: A

    A positive E0cell indicates a feasible reaction.

  2. Question 2

    In a feasible reaction the species with the more positive E0 value is:

    • AOxidised
    • BReduced
    • CUnchanged
    • DPrecipitated
    Show answer

    Answer: B

    The more positive E0 couple is reduced.

  3. Question 3

    The species with the less positive (more negative) E0 value is:

    • AReduced
    • BUnchanged
    • COxidised
    • DA catalyst
    Show answer

    Answer: C

    It loses electrons and is oxidised.

  4. Question 4

    E0cell is calculated as:

    • AE0 of oxidised half-cell minus E0 of reduced half-cell
    • BE0 of reduction plus E0 of oxidation
    • CE0 of reduction multiplied by E0 of oxidation
    • DE0 of the half-cell reduced minus E0 of the half-cell oxidised
    Show answer

    Answer: D

    E0cell = E0(reduced couple) - E0(oxidised couple).

  5. Question 5

    In the reaction of acidified MnO4- with C2O4 2- the oxidising agent is:

    • AMnO4-
    • BC2O4 2-
    • CH+
    • DCO2
    Show answer

    Answer: A

    MnO4- is reduced to Mn2+.
