A gas X at 1 atm is bubbled through a solution containing a mixture of `1 M Y^(-)` and `1 M Z^(-)` at `25^(@)C`. If the order of reduction potentials is `Z gt Y gt X`, then

A

Y will oxidise X but not Z

B

Y will oxidise Zbut not X

C

Y will oxidies both X and Y

D

Y will reduce both X and Y

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
Greater the reduction potential, stronger is the oxidising agent. Hence, Y is stronger oxidising agent than X but weaker than Z.
