The positive value of the standard electrode potential of `Cu^(2+)//Cu` indicates that.......

A

this redox couple is a stronger reducing agent than the `H^(+)//H_(2)` couple.

B

This redox couple is a stronger oxidising agent than `H^(+)//H_(2)`.

C

Cu can displace `H_(2)` from acid.

D

Cu cannot displace `H_(2)` from acid.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B, D
Positive value for `Cr^(2+)//Cu` indicates that this reduction takes place easily compared to `H^(+)//H^(2+)`. Hence, it is stronger oxidizing agent, i.e., (b) is correct. It is also implies that Cu cannot reduce `H^(+)` ions of an acid to `H_(2)`. i.e., (d) is correct.
