If a half cell A+E^(-)rarrA^(-) has a la...

If a half cell `A+E^(-)rarrA^(-)` has a large negative potential it follows that

A

a is easily reduced

B

a is readily oxidised

C

`A^(-)` is readily reduced

D

`A^(-)` is readily oxidsed

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
d
Large negative potential for the rection `A+e^(-)rarrA^(-)` implies that the reverse reaction occurs i.e `A^(-)` is readily oxidised
