Which is the powerful reducing agent?
The elements in group 1 are the strongest reducing agents. This is because they have one electron in their outer shell, which the wish to lose to gain a full outer shell. The strength of the reducing agents decreases going across a period and increases down a group.
Why group 17 elements are strong non metals while grour 1 elements are strong metals?
Group 17 elements are acceptors of electrons and group 1 elements ar donor of electrons.
What part of the periodic table contains strong oxidizing agents?
Transition metal compounds, especially of first period (principally Mn with 7+ and Cr with 6+ charge).
Why is BiH3 the strongest reducing agent amongest the hydrides of group 15 elements?
as bih3 is the most unstable hydride in group 15 therefore it is highly reducing
Is Na2SO4 a strong electrolyte?
yes, all the compounds of ist group elements are strong electrolytes.

Why alkali metals are good reducing agent?
Alkali metal have a strong tendency to lose electrons and act as good reducing agents. The reducing character increases from sodium to caesium. However lithium is the strongest reducing agent.ReasonThe alkali metals have low value of ionization energy which decreases down the group and so can easily lose their valence electron and thus act as good reducing agents.
Why group 1 element poor complexing agents?
They ease with which they donate their outermost electrons which makes them good reducing agents

Group 17 elements are acceptors of electrons and group 1 elements ar donor of electrons.

Transition metal compounds, especially of first period (principally Mn with 7+ and Cr with 6+ charge).
What is the strong base in the 5th group elements?
ammonia
What part of the periodic table will likely formed a strong base?
Group 1 elements followed by group 2 elements.
Which group commonly combines with group 1 elements explain why?
These are elements from the group 17 - halogens; a strong electrostatic attraction exist beween atoms.
Why is BiH3 the strongest reducing agent amongest the hydrides of group 15 elements?
as bih3 is the most unstable hydride in group 15 therefore it is highly reducing
What do nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs stop?
The nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs are a group of agents that inhibit prostaglandin synthetase, thereby reducing the process of inflammation
Is glucose is reducing sugar?
yes Any sugar that has an aldehyde or a ketone group in solution is termed a 'reducing sugar' Glucose is a reducing because: 1: It shows a positive to Fehling's Test for reducing sugars by forming a brick red precipitate. 2: Straight chain monosaccharides can act as mild reducing agents, because the aldehyde group that is present can be oxidized to form a carboxylic acid group and also can form a carboxylate ion group in the presence of a base. Ring form monosaccharide does not have aldehyde group thus are not consider as reducing sugars but they are readily in equilibrium with the open chain thereby becoming a reducing sugar.
Are elements in group 1 on the periodic table?
No. The elements in group 1 (the alkali metals) are very soft, easily cut with a knife, and are highly reactive and react violently with water and oxygen. They are anything but strong, hard and corrosion-resistant.
