Cations having more negative potential than `-0.828V` are reduced in preference to water.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
T
Cations having more value than `-0.828V` are reduced in preference to `H_(2)O`.
Hence, the reduction potential of cations would be greater than that of `H_(2)O`.
Reduction potential of `H_(2)O=-8.28V`.
