The standard reduction potentials are given as :
\(\text{E}^{\circ}_{\text{K}^{+}/\text{K}} = -2.93 \text{ V}\)
\(\text{E}^{\circ}_{\text{Ag}^{+}/\text{Ag}} = +0.80 \text{ V}\)
\(\text{E}^{\circ}_{\text{Cu}^{2+}/\text{Cu}} = +0.34 \text{ V}\)
\(\text{E}^{\circ}_{\text{Ni}^{2+}/\text{Ni}} = -0.25 \text{ V}\)
\(\text{E}^{\circ}_{\text{Li}^{+}/\text{Li}} = -3.05 \text{ V}\)
Arrange the following metals in increasing order of their reducing power :
A. K
B. Ag
C. Cu
D. Ni
E. Li
Choose the correct answer from the options given below :
- A B < C < A < D < E
- B B < C < E < A < D
- C B < C < D < A < E
- D B < C < A < E < D
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) B < C < D < A < E
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Increasing order of reducing power corresponds to decreasing (more negative) standard reduction potential. \(\text{E}^{\circ}_{\text{Ag}^{+}/\text{Ag}} = +0.80 \text{ V}\) \(\text{E}^{\circ}_{\text{Cu}^{2+}/\text{Cu}} = +0.34 \text{ V}\)…

Carbohydrates are essential for both plants and animals. Some common examples of carbohydrates are glucose, fructose, sucrose, glycogen, cellulose and starch. They form a major portion of our food. Honey has been used for a long time as an instant source of energy in Ayurvedic medicine. Carbohydrates are used as storage molecules in both plants and animals. The cell wall of bacteria and plants is made of cellulose. We use cellulose in the form of wood for making furniture and as cotton fiber for clothing. They also provide raw material for textiles,
paper, lacquers, and breweries. Carbohydrates are classified as Monosaccharides, Oligosaccharides and Polysaccharides on the basis of their behavior towards hydrolysis. Monosaccharides cannot be hydrolyzed further to simpler units whereas oligosaccharides can yield 2-10 units of monosaccharides on hydrolysis. Polysaccharides, which are non-sugars yield a large number of monosaccharide units on hydrolysis.

Aldehydes are generally more reactive than ketones in nucleophilic addition reactions due to steric and electronic reasons. Sterically, the presence of two relatively large substituents in ketones hinders the approach of nucleophile to carbonyl carbon more than aldehydes having only one such substituent Electronically aldehydes are more reactive than ketones because two alkyl groups reduce the elctrophilicity of the carbonyl more effectively than in former.
