Question

The standard reduction potentials at $\rightarrow$for the following half reactions are given against each.

$\Delta º_{eq} = \Delta º_{c} + \Delta º_{a}$⇌$\Delta_{m} = \frac{k}{C}$; – 0.762

$\alpha\frac{\Delta_{m}}{\Delta º_{m}}$⇌$K_{a} = \frac{C\alpha^{2}}{1 - \alpha}$; – 0.740

$\rightarrow$⇌$\rightarrow$; 0.00

$\rightarrow$⇌$\rightarrow$; 0.770

Which is the strongest reducing agent.

• A. $\rightarrow$
• B. $\rightarrow$
• C. $\rightarrow$
• D. $\rightarrow$

Answer 1

Answer: (A)

$\rightarrow$

Answer 2

More negative is the reduction potential, higher will be the reducing property, i.e. the power to give up electrons.
