Standard Reduction Potentials

Tutorial II

For each of the following, write a net ionic equation for any spontaneous reaction or write "no appreciable reaction." You may use a table of standard reduction potentials.

1) A copper strip is placed in an aqueous solution of zinc chloride.

2) A piece of zinc is placed in an aqueous solution of tin(II) chloride.

3) If chlorine at 1 atmosphere pressure is bubbled through 1.0 M NaOH(aq), will oxygen be produced?
