What is the sequence of deposition of metals on the cathode ?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To determine the sequence of deposition of metals on the cathode based on their standard electrode potentials, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Concept of Standard Electrode Potential The standard electrode potential (E°) indicates the tendency of a species to be reduced. A higher E° value means a greater tendency for the species to gain electrons and be reduced, leading to its deposition on the cathode. ### Step 2: List the Given Standard Electrode Potentials We have the following standard electrode potentials: - \( E^\circ(Ag^+/Ag) = 0.80 \, V \) ...

The potential associated. with each electrode is known as electrode potential. If the concentration of each species taking part in the electrode reaction is unity (if any gås appears in the electrode reaction, it is confined to 1 atmospheric pressure) and further the reaction is carried out at 298 K, then the potential of each electrode is said to be the standard electrode potential. By convention, the standard electrode potential of hydrogen electrode is 0:0 volt. The electrode potential value for each electrode process is a measure, of relative tendency of the active species in the process to remain in the oxidized / reduced form. A negative E^@ means that the redox couple is a stronger reducing agent than the H^(+)//H_2 couple. A positive E mears that the redox couple is a weaker reducing agent than. the H^(+)//H couple. The metal with greater positive value of standard reduction potentlal forms the oxide of greater thermal stability: Given the standard reduction potentials. E_(K^(+)//K)^(@)=-2.93V, E_(Ag^(+)//Ag)^(@)=+0.80V, E_(Hg^(+)//Hg)^(@)=0.79V E_(Mg^(+)//Mg)^(@)=-2.37V, E_(Cr^(3+)//Cr)^(@)=-0.74V The correct increasing order of reducing power is:
