Answer:
Option d. is correct
Explanation:
Nitromethane is an organic compound that can be used as a fuel booster in rockets. Its chemical formula is .
This compound is produced as a result of reaction of sodium chloroacetate with sodium nitrite in aqueous solution.
The electron-dot structure of a nitromethane molecule shows charge on the nitrogen.
Option d. is correct
Answer:
strongest oxidizing agent:
weakest oxidizing agent:
strongest reducing agent: Y
weakest reducing agent: X
will oxidize Z
Explanation:
The higher the reduction potential of a species, higher will be the tendency to consume electrons from another species. Hence higher will be the oxidizing power of it's oxidized form and lower will be the reducing power of it's reduced form.
Alternatively, higher reduction potential value suggests that the oxidized form of the species acts as a stronger oxidizing agent and the reduced form of the species acts as a weaker reducing agent.
Order of reduction potential:
So, strongest oxidizing agent:
weakest oxidizing agent:
strongest reducing agent: Y
weakest reducing agent: X
As reduction potential of the half cell is higher than the reduction potential of the half cell
therefore
will oxidize Z into
and itself gets converted into X.
