Chapter 16, Problem 9SAQ
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The spontaneity of redox reaction is to be determined.

Concept Introduction: The reaction which occurs on its own is known as spontaneous reaction.

The half-reaction containing the metals from top of the list of activity series, when paired with the reverse of half-reaction containing the metals from the bottom of the list, it will be a spontaneous reaction.

The metal present at the top of the activity series is oxidised and the metal present at the bottom of the activity series is reduced.
