\begin{abstract}
Superalkalis have lower ionization energy than that of alkali atoms and
superhalogens have higher electron affinity than that of halogen atoms.
This property can be exploited to improve the efficacy of redox
reactions that are routinely used in the scientific and industrial
laboratories. Some of these reactions are theoretically studied and
their thermodynamic parameters are analyzed. Alternatives to these
reactions with the use of superalkalis and superhalogens are suggested
by assuming similar behavior to that of their alkali metal or halogen
analogues. Consequently, these reactions are analyzed, and their
properties are compared to the existing reactions. Particularly, the
change in reaction enthalpy, Gibbs free energy and their electrochemical
potential are compared. Quantification of the reducing property of the
superalkalis is also studied in the present situation by using an ionic
equation. In all the cases, the results are promising and consequently,
some of their applications are contemplated.%
