Question

How do you find oxidizing agents?

Answer 1

Well, what are we breathing now?

Explanation:

Dioxygen gas is a potent, and common oxidizing agent.....and we can represent its formal reduction.........

`1/2stackrel(0)O_2 + 2e^(-)rarrO^(2-)`

And an even more potent oxidizing agent is difluorine gas.....

`1/2stackrel(0)F_2 + e^(-) rarr F^-`
