1.	An iron wire is immeresed in a solution containing ZnSO_4 NiSO_4. When the concentration of each salt is 1 M, predict giving reasons which of the following reactions is likely to proceed ? (i) Iron reduced Zn^(2+) ions (ii) Iron reduces Ni^(+) ions . Given E^@(Zn^(2+)\|Zn)=-0.76V,E^@(Fe^(2+)\|Fe)=-0.44V, and E^@(Ni\|Ni)=-0.25V
Answer» ANSWER :IRON reduces `Ni^(2+)` ions
