Arrange the following electrodes in decreasing order of the strength of the respective ions as reducing agent.
(A) \(Cu ^{2+}+2 e^{-} \rightarrow Cu ( s ) \quad E^{\circ}=0.34 V\)
(B) \(Su ^{2+}+2 e^{-} \rightarrow Su (s) \quad E^{\circ}=-0.14 V\)
(C) \(AgBr ( s )+e^{-} \rightarrow Ag ( s )+ Br ^{-} \quad E ^{\circ}=0.10 V\)
(D) \(Pb ^{2+}+2 e^{-} \rightarrow Pb ( s ) \quad E^{\circ}=-0.13 V\)
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
- A (B), (D), (C), (A)
- B (A), (C), (D), (B)
- C (C), (A), (B), (D)
- D (D), (B), (A), (C)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) (B), (D), (C), (A)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
The strength of a reducing agent is inversely proportional to its standard reduction potential (E°). More negative E° \(\rightarrow\) Stronger reducing agent. Given E° values: (A) \(Cu(s): E^{\circ}=+0.34 V\) (B) \(Sn(s): E^{\circ}=-0.14 V\) (C) \(Ag(s): E^{\circ}=+0.10 V\) (D)…

A homogeneous mixture of two or more than two components has uniform composition and properties. The binary solutions have two components, which may be solid, liquid or gas. The resultant solution has a larger amount of solvent and a smaller amount of solute. The amount of solute in a given amount of solvent decides the concentration of the resulting solution. The concentration can be expressed in various ways, like molarity, molality, normality and mole fraction. The molality of a 1 liter aqueous solution of \(93 \backslash \% H _2 SO _4\) (mass/volume) is:
