For given, E_(Cl_(2)//Cl^(-))^(@)=1.36V,E_(Cr^(3+)//Cr)^(@)=-0.74V E_(Cr_(2)O_(7)^(2-)//Cr^(3+))^(@)=1.33V,E_(MnO_(4)^(-)//Mn^(2+))^(@)=1.51V then which of the following is strongest reducing agent ?

Answer»

Cr
`MN^(2+)`
`Cr^(3+)`
`Cl^(-)`

Solution :WHOSE `E_(RED)^(@)` is less so it becomes STRONGEST reducing AGENT.
So, `E_(Cr^(3)//Cr)^(@)=0.74V`
When `E_(Mn^(2+)//MnO_(4)^(-))^(@)=-1.51V`
`E_(Cr^(+3)//Cr_(2)O_(7)^(-2))^(@)=-1.33V`
`E_(Cl^(-)//Cl_(2))^(@)=-1.36V`.
