Four alkali metals A, B, C and D are having respectively standard electrode potential as –3.05,–1.66,–0.40 and 0.80. Which one will be the most reactive.
A
A
B
B
C
C
D
D
Answer
A
Explanation
Solution
More negative is the standard reduction potential, greater is the tendency to lose electrons and hence greater reactivity.
