Answer:

In the given chemical reaction:

Species Oxidized: I⁻

Species Reduced: Fe³⁺

Oxidizing agent: Fe³⁺

Reducing agent: I⁻

As the reaction proceeds, electrons are transferred from I⁻ to Fe³⁺

Explanation:

Redox reaction is a chemical reaction involving the simultaneous movement of electrons thereby causing oxidation of one species and reduction of the other species.

The chemical species that <u><em>gets reduced by gaining electrons </em></u><u>is called an </u><u><em>oxidizing agent</em></u>. Whereas, the chemical species that <u><em>gets oxidized by losing electrons </em></u><u>is called a </u><u><em>reducing agent</em></u><u>.</u>

Given redox reaction: 2Fe³⁺ + 2I⁻ → 2Fe²⁺ + I₂

<u>Oxidation half-reaction</u>: 2 I⁻ +  → I₂ + 2 e⁻                 ....(1)

<u>Reduction half-reaction</u>: [ Fe³⁺ + 1 e⁻ → Fe²⁺ ] × 2

                                   ⇒  2 Fe³⁺ + 2 e⁻ → 2 Fe²⁺       ....(2)

In the given redox reaction, <u>Fe³⁺ (oxidation state +3) accepts electrons and gets reduced to Fe²⁺ (oxidation state +2) and I⁻ (oxidation state -1) loses electrons and gets oxidized to I₂ (oxidation state 0).</u>

<u>Therefore, Fe³⁺ is the oxidizing agent and I⁻ is the reducing agent and the electrons are transferred from I⁻ to Fe³⁺.</u>

1. The third option is the least soluble in water because it is the chain with the most number of hydrocarbons. Next is the second option while the first one is the most soluble.
2. Statements 1 and 2 are true. The third option is not true all the time because it depends on the structure of the compound.
