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

Higher the electrode reduction potential , lower is its tendency to lose electrons and therefore , lower is the electropositive character of the metal So, the metals can be arranged as : B, D , A , C
