Question
CBSEENCH12006091

On the basis of the standard electrode potential values stated for acid solution. Predict whether Ti4+ species may be used to oxidise FeII to FeIII.
Reaction: E°/V TiIV + e → Ti3+ + 0.01
Fe3+ + e → Fe2+ + 0.77

Solution

Ti4+ would not oxidize Fe+2 . since the standard electrode potential of iron is high as compare to the titanuim standard electrode potential.
