Substances X, Y and Z can all act as oxidizing agents. In Colution X is Violet Y is Yello and Z is green. In the reactions they undergo thay are reduced to X- Y- and Z-, all of which are colorless. When a solution of Y is mixed with one containg X- ions the color changes from yellow to violet. Required:
a. What Species Is oxidized? (X-)
b. Which Species is reduced(Y).
c. When a soulton of Y is mixed with one containing Z- ions, the solution remains yellow.
d. Is Y a better oxidizing agent than Z?
e. Is Y a better oxidizing agent than X?
