According to international converntion, standard reduction potentials are now callde standard potential.
(i) the oxidizing poweer of the species on the left side fo the reaction dereases
(ii) the reducing power fo the species on the right -hand side fo the reaction increased
(iii) the oxidizing power of the species on the left side fo the reaction increases
(iv) the reducing power of the species on the right side fo the reaction decrease .

Options

A. (iii), (iv)
B. (i), (ii)
C. (i), (iii)
D. (ii), (iii)

Answer

B

Explanation

Standard reduction potential measures the tendency to undergo the following reaction :
Oxidized form `+n e^(-) hArr` Reduced from.
With decrease of ` E^Ө`, the tendency to undergo forward reaction decreases while the tendency to undergo backward reaction increases.
