The correct Answer is:
To determine the total number of species that are good oxidizing agents, reducing agents, or neither, we will analyze each species provided in the question. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Species**: - a. `F_(2)` - b. `F^(−)` - c. `Na` - d. `Na^(+)` - e. `MnO_(4)^(−)` - f. `I^(−)` - g. `Cl^(−)` - h. `Ce^(4+)` - i. `Cr_(2)O_(7)^(2−)` - j. `CrO_(4)^(2−)` - k. `HNO_(3)` - l. `Fe^(2+)` 2. **Analyze Each Species**: - **`F_(2)`**: - Oxidation state changes from 0 to -1 (F2 → 2F−). - Acts as a **good oxidizing agent**. - **`F^(−)`**: - Oxidation state changes from -1 to 0 (2F− → F2). - Acts as a **reducing agent**. - **`Na`**: - Oxidation state changes from 0 to +1 (Na → Na+). - Acts as a **good reducing agent**. - **`Na^(+)`**: - Oxidation state changes from +1 to 0 (Na+ → Na). - Acts as an **oxidizing agent**, but not a good one. - **`MnO_(4)^(−)`**: - Manganese in +7 state can be reduced to +2 or +4. - Acts as a **very good oxidizing agent**. - **`I^(−)`**: - Oxidation state changes from -1 to 0 (2I− → I2). - Acts as a **reducing agent**. - **`Cl^(−)`**: - Oxidation state changes from -1 to 0 (2Cl− → Cl2). - Acts as a **reducing agent**. - **`Ce^(4+)`**: - Can be reduced to +3. - Acts as a **very good oxidizing agent**. - **`Cr_(2)O_(7)^(2−)`**: - Chromium in +6 state can be reduced. - Acts as a **very good oxidizing agent**. - **`CrO_(4)^(2−)`**: - Chromium also in +6 state can be reduced. - Acts as a **very good oxidizing agent**. - **`HNO_(3)`**: - Nitrogen in +5 state can be reduced. - Acts as a **very good oxidizing agent**. - **`Fe^(2+)`**: - Oxidation state changes from +2 to +3 (Fe2+ → Fe3+). - Acts as a **very good reducing agent**. 3. **Count the Species**: - **Good Oxidizing Agents**: `F_(2)`, `MnO_(4)^(−)`, `Ce^(4+)`, `Cr_(2)O_(7)^(2−)`, `CrO_(4)^(2−)`, `HNO_(3)` (Total: 6) - **Good Reducing Agents**: `F^(−)`, `Na`, `I^(−)`, `Cl^(−)`, `Fe^(2+)` (Total: 5) - **Neither**: `Na^(+)` (Total: 1) 4. **Total Count**: - Good oxidizing agents: 6 - Good reducing agents: 5 - Neither: 1 - **Total Species**: 6 (oxidizing) + 5 (reducing) + 1 (neither) = **12 species**. ### Final Answer: The total number of species which are very good oxidizing agents, reducing agents, or neither oxidizing nor reducing ones is **12**.

To determine the total number of species that are good oxidizing agents, reducing agents, or neither, we will analyze each species provided in the question. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Species**: - a. `F_(2)` - b. `F^(−)` - c. `Na` ...
