Standard electrode potential data is given below :
`Fe^(3+) (aq) + e ^(-) rarr Fe^(2+) (aq) , E^(o) = + 0.77 V `
`Al^(3+) (aq) + 3e^(-) rarr Al (s) , E^(o) = - 1.66 V `
`Br_(2) (aq) + 2e^(-) rarr 2Br^(-) (aq) , E^(o) = +1.08 V`
Based on the data given above, reducing power of `Fe^(2+)` Al and `Br^(-)` will increase in the order :

A

`Fe^(2+) lt Al lt Br^(-)`

B

`Br^(-) lt Fe^(2+) lt Al`

C

`Al lt Br^(-) lt Fe^(2+)`

D

`Al lt Fe^(2+) lt Br^(-)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

Reducing characters decreases down the series . Hence the correct order is
`Al lt Fe^(2+) lt Br^(-)`
