Question: Predict whether the following reactions would occur spontaneously in aqueous solution at 25C. Assume that the initial concentrations of dissolved species are all 1.0 M.

Predict whether the following reactions would occur spontaneously in aqueous solution at 25°C. Assume that the initial concentrations of dissolved species are all 1.0 M.
(a) Ca(s) + Cd2+(aq) → Ca2+(aq) + Cd(s)
(b) 2Br2(aq) + Sn2+(aq) → Br2(l) + Sn(s)
(c) 2Ag(s) + Ni2+(aq) → 2Ag+(aq) + Ni(s)
(d) Cu+(aq) + Fe3+(aq) → Cu2+(aq) + Fe2+(aq)
