Electrochemistry - Result Question 69

####17. The standard reduction potential values of three metallic cations, $X, Y, Z$ are $0.52,-3.03$ and $-1.18 V$ respectively. The order of reducing power of the corresponding metals is

(a) $Y>Z>X$

(b) $X>Y>Z$

(c) $Z>Y>X$

(d) $Z>X>Y$

$(1998,2 M)$

Answer:

Correct Answer: 17. (b)

Solution:

  1. Lower the value of $E^{\circ}$, stronger the reducing agent.

Reducing power:

$Y\left(E^{\circ}=-3.03 V\right)>Z\left(E^{\circ}=-1.18 V\right)>X\left(E^{\circ}=0.52 V\right)$.
