Redox Reactions And Electrochemistry Ques 154
Question: When $ E_{A{g^{+}}/Ag}^{o}=0.8 $ volt and $ E_{Z{n^{2+}}/Zn}^{o}=-0.76, $ volt, which of the following is correct [MP PMT 1994]
Options:
A) $ A{g^{+}} $ can be reduced by $ H_2 $
B) $ Ag $ can oxidise $ H_2 $ into $ {H^{+}} $
C) $ Z{n^{2+}} $ can be reduced by $ H_2 $
D) $ Ag $ can reduce $ Z{n^{2+}} $ ion
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: A
Solution:
Because $ H_2 $ has greater reduction potential so it reduced the $ A{g^{+}} $ .
