Please Help. Victor made the graph shown to record the observations of an experiment to study the effect of soil additives on the growth of plants. Three identical plants having a height of 25 cm were used for the experiment. The first plant had no soil additives, the second plant had wheat straw in the soil, and the third plant had polymer in the soil. All other growing conditions of the plants were kept constant.

Which correct step in the scientific method did Victor most likely do before the step described here?

Wish i can but don’t know this

Ithink is a because if say increased in electronegativity

Answerthe half-reaction having the greatest tendency to occur at the anode:     i₂(aq) + 2e⁻  ⇄ 2i⁻  ;   e = +0.53 v======oxidation occurs at the anode. we must therefore find the half-reaction with the greatest tendency to oxidize.the given values of e are reduction potentials (the form of the half-reactions are of reduction).the lower the reduction potential, the higher the potential to oxidize. the half-cell with the lowest reduction potential will have the greatest tendency to oxidize at the anode.the half-reaction having the greatest tendency must be    i₂(aq) + 2e⁻  ⇄ 2i⁻    e = +0.53 vbecause its reduction potential is the lowest out of the three.
