The standard electrode potential of four metallic elements (A, B, C and D) are + 0.80, –0.76, + 0.12 and +0.34 V respectively. Arrange them in order of decreasing electropositive character

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The standard reduction potential of the four metallic elements – A, B, C and D have been given. Higher the reduction potential, lesser will be the electropositive character.
`:.` Decreasing order of electropositive character is – B > C > D > A
