From the given standard reduction potentials, arrange the metals in decreasing order of their reducing power.
(A) \(E_{ Zn ^{2+} / Zn _{ n }}^0=-0.76 V\)
(B) \(E_{ Mg ^{2+} / Mg }^0=-2.37 V\)
(C) \(E_{ Al ^{3+} / Al }^0=-1.67 V\)
(D) \(E_{ Ag ^{+} / Ag }^0=+0.80 V\)
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

  1. A (A), (B), (C), (D)
  2. B (D), (A), (C), (B)
  3. C (B), (A), (D), (C)

Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) (B), (C), (A), (D)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Decreasing order of reducing power (more negative \(E^0\) = stronger reducing agent): Mg > Al > Zn > Ag Answer: (B), (C), (A), (D)
