Which one of the following is the weakest oxidizing agent?

  1. A F
  2. B \(H _2\)
  3. C \(Li ^{+}\)
  4. D \(K ^{+}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(Li ^{+}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(E^\circ\) values for reduction: \(F_2 = +2.87 \text{ V}\), \(H^+ = 0.00 \text{ V}\), \(K^+ = -2.92 \text{ V}\), \(Li^+ = -3.05 \text{ V}\). Weakest oxidizing agent has the most negative \(E^\circ\). Result: \(Li^+\)
