On the basis of the folwing E^@ values, the strongest oxidizing agent is [Fe(CN)_6 ]_4^(-) rarr [Fe(CN)_5]^(3-) +3^- , E^@ =- 0.35 V Fe^(2+) rarr Fe^(3+) + e^(- : E^@ =- 0. 77 V .

(i) On the basis of the standard electrode potential values stated for acid solutions, predict whether Ti^(4+) species may be used to oxidise Fe(II) to Fe(III) {:(Ti^(4+) + e^(-) to Ti^(3+), E^(@) = +0.01V), (Fe^(3+) + e^(-) to Fe^(2+), E^(@)= +0.77V):} (ii) Based on the data arrange Fe^(3+), Mn^(2+) " and " Cr^(2+) in the increasing order of stability of +2 oxidation state. (Give a brief reason) E_(Cr^(3+)//Cr^(2+))^(@) = -0.4V E_(Mn^(3+)//Mn^(2+))^(@) = +1.5V E_(Fe^(3+)//Fe^(2+))^(@) = +0.8V
