Select the strongest oxidant and reductant given that all of the following processes are extensive.
Hint: This is a logic problem. If you know A reduces B2+, then you know A is a stronger reducing agent than B, so A > B. Look at each reaction and relate the two components. Soon you will have all 4 relationships: X > Z > W > Y.
Extensive Processes: A + B^2+ -> A^2+ + B
B + C^2+ -> B^2+ + C
D + B^2+-> D^2+ + B
A + D^2+-> A^2+ + D

-
A + B^2+ -> A^2+ + B A>B as far as reducing agent B+2 > A+2 as far as oxidiaing agent
I'll ignore the second realationship for now.
B + C^2+ -> B^2+ + C B>C
D + B^2+-> D^2+ + B D>B
A + D^2+-> A^2+ + D A>D
A>D>B>C
A is the strongest reducing agent
C+2 is the greatest oxidizing agent
