Each of the following redox reaction occurs spontaneously.
`Cu(s)+2Ag^(+)(aq)rarrCu^(2+)(aq)+2Ag(s)`
Arrange with explanation Ag,Cu in order of their decreasing standard reduction potential.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`Cu` is oxidised and `Ag^(+)` is reduced. Hence, `E_(Cu^(2+)|Cu)^(@)` lt E_(Ag^(+)|Ag)^(@)`.
