For which of these oxidation/reduction pairs will the reduction potential vary with pH?
I `AmO_(2)^(2+)//AmO_(2)^(+)` II. `AmO_(2)^(2+)//Am^(4+)` III `Am^(4+) // Am^(2+)`

A

I only

B

II only

C

I and II only

D

I, II only III

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

`4H^(+) + AmO_(2)^(2+) + 2e^(-) rarr Am^(4+) + 2H_(2)O`
It includes `H^(+)` ions, hence the electrode potential depends on pH
