Question: Reduction potential of four elements $ P,Q,R,S $ is $ -,2.90,,+,0.34,,+,1.20 $ and $ -,0.76. $ Reactivity decreases in the order [MP PET 1989; UPSEAT 2001]
Options:
A) $ P>Q>R>S $
B) $ Q>P>R>S $
C) $ R>Q>S>P $
D) $ P>S>Q>R $
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: D
Solution:
Reducing power i.e. the tendency to lose electrons increases as the reduction potential decreases.
