The standard reduction potential \(\left(E^{\circ}\right)\) values of \(Ag ^{+}\left| Ag , K ^{+}\right| K , Mg ^{2+} \mid Mg\) and \(Cr ^{3+} \mid Cr\) are \(0.80 V,-2.93 V,-2.37 V\) and -0.74 V respectively. The decreasing order of reducing power of the following metals is:
(A)\(A g\)
(B)\(K\)
(C)\(Mg\)
(D)\(Cr\)
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
- A (A), (D), (C), (B)
- B (A), (B), (C), (D)
- C (B), (C), (D), (A)
- D (C), (B), (D), (A)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) (B), (C), (D), (A)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
The decreasing order of reducing power is determined by increasing standard reduction potential. K (E° = -2.93 V) > Mg (E° = -2.37 V) > Cr (E° = -0.74 V) > Ag (E° = +0.80 V) So, the decreasing order is (B), (C), (D), (A).
