Question

Will fe3+ ions be reduced by sn2+ under standard condition

Answer 1

Answer:

I don't think so

Explanation:

Sn2+ is more stable than its oxidised state i.e. sn4+ so under standard condition it wont reduce fe3+

Answer 2

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

First of all, your question is incomplete. There are reduction potentials for each element given too. (Fe=0.77V, Sn=0.15V). Now, if you go on finding the answer, it will be yes, since the reduction potential of Fe is greater than that of Sn, thereby increasing its tendency to reduce. Hence, Fe3+ will get reduced and Sn2+ (and it will become the reducing agent).

Hope this helps you... ;)
