Which from following is strongest reducing agent?
- A \(\mathrm{K}\)
- B \(\mathrm{Al}\)
- C \(\mathrm{Mg}\)
- D \(\mathrm{Ag}\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) \(\mathrm{K}\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
The strength of reducing agents increases from top to bottom in the electrochemical series as \(\mathrm{E}^0\) values decrease. Among the given options, \(\mathrm{K}\) has the lowest value of \(\mathrm{E}^{\circ}(-2.925 \mathrm{~V})\).
