Question

Consider the following standard reduction potentials in acid solution:  The strongest oxidizing agent listed above is

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The best way to determine the strongest oxidizing agent is to look for the species with the highest reduction potential. Among the options given, MnO₄⁻/Mn²⁺ has the highest reduction potential of +1.51 V. Therefore, MnO₄⁻ is the strongest oxidizing agent listed in the options.
