Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

Higher the position of element in the electrochemical series, more difficult is the reduction of its cations.
If `Ca^(2+)` (aq) is electrolysed, water is reduced in preference to it. Hence it cannot be reduced electrolytically from an aqueous solution.
