The standard reduction potential values ...

The standard reduction potential values of three metallic cations, `X,Y,` and `Z` are `0.52,-3.03,` and `-0.18V`, respectively. The order of reducing power of the corresponding metal is

A

`YgtZgtX`

B

`XgtYgtZ`

C

`ZgtYgtX`

D

`ZgtXgtY`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
More negative or lower is the reduction potential, more is the reducing property. Thus the reducing power of the corresponding metal will follow the reverse order, i.e., `Y gt Z gt X`.
