To determine which ion will be selectively discharged from the aqueous mixture of ions \( \text{Pb}^{2+}, \text{Ag}^+, \) and \( \text{Cu}^{2+} \), we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Process of Electrolysis In electrolysis, cations (positively charged ions) migrate towards the cathode (negative electrode) where they undergo reduction (gain of electrons). The ion that is reduced first is the one with the highest standard reduction potential. ### Step 2: Identify the Ions The ions present in the mixture are: - \( \text{Pb}^{2+} \) ...
