Electrochemistry - Result Question 62

####11. Given, $E _{Cr^{3+} / Cr}^{\circ}=-0.74 V ; E _{MnO _4^{-} / Mn^{2+}}^{\circ}=1.51 V$

Based on the data given above strongest oxidising agent will be

(2013 Main)

(a) $Cl$

(b) $Cr^{3+}$

(c) $Mn^{2+}$

(d) $MnO _4^{-}$

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: 11. (d)

Solution:

  1. Higher the standard reduction potential, better is oxidising agent. Among the given $E _{MnO _4^{-} / Mn^{2+}}^{\circ}$ is highest, hence $MnO _4^{-}$is the strongest oxidising agent.
