Ac3++3e??Ac(s)E0=?2.20V

Mo3+ +3e??Mo(s)E0=?0.200V

Which of the following statements is false?

aMo3+ is a stronger oxidizing agent thanAc3+.

bActinium (Ac) is a more "active" metal thanmolybdenum (Mo).

cAddition of Mo metal to a solution ofAc3+ ions will result in the production of a largeamount of Ac metal.

dSince Ac is such a strong reducing agent,Ac3+ will be a poor oxidizing agent.

In an expanded redox activity series, aluminum is located above iron. Which statement correctly predicts what will happen (or not happen) when these two metals and its cations interact?

a) Aluminum will act as the stronger reducing agent and iron will act as the stronger oxidant. In the spontaneous reaction, the oxidation number of iron will increase.

b) Aluminum will act as the stronger reducing agent and iron metal ion will act as the stronger oxidant.

c) In the nonspontaneous reaction, the metals will not react because iron is a stronger reducing agent than aluminum.

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.

WHILE THE ANSWER POINTS TOWARDS A NOTICE THAT THE OXIDATION NUMBER OF IRON DECREASES IN THE SPONTANEOUS RXN FROM Fe2+ to Fe so it can't be A or am i wrong? PLEASE EXPLAIN YOUR REASONING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
