Redox Reactions And Electrochemistry Ques 135
Question: 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 [MP PMT/PET 1988 ; CPMT 1983; MNR 1993; UPSEAT 2002]
Options:
A) A
B) B
C) C
D) D
Show Answer
Answer:
