The redox reactions of iron

Use appropriate electrode potentials to predict the feasibility of each of the following reactions. Write a balanced ionic equation for each potential reaction. You can check your answers in the reaction feasibility link below. Watch each of the videos to check whether a reaction actually takes place. Remember, even though you may have predicted that a reaction is feasible, this tells you nothing about the rate of the reaction. This means that there may be no observable change for a reaction which you have predicted as feasible.
