The standard \(E_{\text {red }}^{\circ}\) values of \(A, B\) and \(C\) are \(+0.68 \mathrm{~V},-2.54 \mathrm{~V},-0.50 \mathrm{~V}\) respectively. The
order of their reducing power is

  1. A \(A>B>C\)
  2. B \(A>C>B\)
  3. C \(C>B>A\)
  4. D \(B>C>A\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(B>C>A\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Reducing character is based upon higher negative value of reduction electrode potential.
Thus, order of reducing character is
\(B > C > A\)
