back 21 of 25 skip submit In an expanded redox activity scrics, aluminum is located above iron.
Which statement correctly predicts what will happen (or not happen) when thesc two mctals and
its cations interact? Aluminum will act as the stronger rcducing agent and iron will act as the
stronger oxidant. In the spontancous reaction, the oxidation number of iron will incrcase.
Aluminum will act as the stronger reducing agent and iron metal ion will act as the stronger
oxidant In the nonspontaneous reaction, the metals will not react because iron is a stronger
reducing agent than aluminum Iron will act as the stronger reducing agent and aluminum will act
as the stronger oxidant. In the spontancous reaction, the oxidation number of aluminum will
decrease
Solution
The above in the series, the more the reduction potential.
As itself reduced, so acts as oxidant and oxidation number decreases.
Hence, the answer is -
D) Iron will act as the stronger reducing agent and aluminum will act as the stronger oxidant. In
the spontaneous reaction, the oxidation number of aluminum will decrease.
