The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to analyze the given standard reduction potentials and determine which statement is not correct based on these values. ### Given Data: - \( E^\circ (Ag^+ / Ag) = +0.80 \, V \) - \( E^\circ (Cu^{2+} / Cu) = +0.34 \, V \) - \( E^\circ (Fe^{3+} / Fe^{2+}) = +0.76 \, V \) - \( E^\circ (Ce^{4+} / Ce^{3+}) = +1.60 \, V \) ### Analyzing Each Statement: 1. **Statement 1**: \( Fe^{3+} \) does not oxidize \( Ce^{3+} \). - **Analysis**: The reduction potential of \( Fe^{3+} \) to \( Fe^{2+} \) is \( +0.76 \, V \) and for \( Ce^{4+} \) to \( Ce^{3+} \) is \( +1.60 \, V \). Since \( 0.76 < 1.60 \), \( Fe^{3+} \) cannot oxidize \( Ce^{3+} \). - **Conclusion**: This statement is **correct**. 2. **Statement 2**: \( Cu \) reduces \( Ag^+ \) to \( Ag \). - **Analysis**: The reduction potential of \( Ag^+ \) to \( Ag \) is \( +0.80 \, V \) and for \( Cu^{2+} \) to \( Cu \) is \( +0.34 \, V \). Since \( 0.80 > 0.34 \), \( Cu \) can reduce \( Ag^+ \) to \( Ag \). - **Conclusion**: This statement is **correct**. 3. **Statement 3**: \( Ag \) will reduce \( Cu^{2+} \) to \( Cu \). - **Analysis**: The reduction potential of \( Ag^+ \) to \( Ag \) is \( +0.80 \, V \) and for \( Cu^{2+} \) to \( Cu \) is \( +0.34 \, V \). Since \( 0.80 > 0.34 \), \( Ag \) cannot reduce \( Cu^{2+} \) to \( Cu \) because \( Ag^+ \) has a higher reduction potential than \( Cu^{2+} \). - **Conclusion**: This statement is **not correct**. 4. **Statement 4**: \( Fe^{3+} \) oxidizes \( Cu \) to \( Cu^{2+} \). - **Analysis**: The reduction potential of \( Fe^{3+} \) to \( Fe^{2+} \) is \( +0.76 \, V \) and for \( Cu^{2+} \) to \( Cu \) is \( +0.34 \, V \). Since \( 0.76 > 0.34 \), \( Fe^{3+} \) can oxidize \( Cu \) to \( Cu^{2+} \). - **Conclusion**: This statement is **correct**. ### Final Conclusion: The statement that is **not correct** is **Statement 3**: \( Ag \) will reduce \( Cu^{2+} \) to \( Cu \).

To solve the problem, we need to analyze the given standard reduction potentials and determine which statement is not correct based on these values. ### Given Data: - \( E^\circ (Ag^+ / Ag) = +0.80 \, V \) - \( E^\circ (Cu^{2+} / Cu) = +0.34 \, V \) - \( E^\circ (Fe^{3+} / Fe^{2+}) = +0.76 \, V \) - \( E^\circ (Ce^{4+} / Ce^{3+}) = +1.60 \, V \) ...
