On the basis of the following `E^(@)` values, the stongest oxidizing agent is `[Fe(CN)_(6)]^(4-) rarr [Fe(CN)_(6)]^(3-)+e^(-), E^(@) = -0.35 V`
`Fe^(2+) rarr Fe^(3+)+e^(-), E^(@) = -0.77 V`

A

`[Fe(CN)_(6)]^(4-)`

B

`Fe^(2+)`

C

`Fe^(3+)`

D

`[Fe(CN)_(6)]^(3-)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
From the given data we find ` Fe ^( 3+ ) ` is strongest oxidising agent. More the positive value of ` E ^@ `, more is the tendency to get oxidized. Thus correct option is (c ) .
