The positive value of the standard electrode potential of Cu^(2+)// Cu indicates that …………… 1) This redox couple is a strongest reducing agent than the H^(+)//H_(2) couple. 2) This redox couple is a stronger oxidising agent than H^(+)//H_(2) 3) Cu cannot displace H_(2) from acid. 4) Cu cannot displaced H_(2) from acid.

Assertion: Cu^(2+) is more stable than Cu^(+) Reason: Electrode potential is more important in determining stable oxidation state than electronic configuration.

Assertion (A): While the extraction of copper, one of the steps involved is Cu_(2)S+2Cu_(2)O to 6Cu+SO_(2) Reason (R): In this reaction Cu_(2)S is the reducing agent whereas Cu_(2)O is the oxidising agent.
