The more positive the value of `E^(θ)`, the greater is the trendency of the species to get reduced. Using the standard electrode potential of redox coples given below find out which of the following is the strongest oxidising agent. `E^(θ)` values: `Fe^(3+)//Fe^(2+) = +0.77` `I_(2)(s)//I^(-) = +0.54`, `Cu^(2+)//Cu = +0.34, Ag^(+)//A = 0.80V`A. `Fe^(3+)`B. `I_(2(s))`C. `Cu^(2+)`D. Ag |
Answer» Correct Answer - D Strongest oxidising agent means it has greater tendency to get reduced. Thus, `Ag^(+)` having more positive `E^(@)` value, is the strongest oxidising agent. |
