More negative the value of standard reduction potential, higher is the reduction power. i.e. Reducing power ∝ standard reduction potential 1 Thus, the correct decreasing order of reducing power of the metal is K>Al>(EK+/K0=−2.93 V)(EAl3+/Al0=−1.66 V)Cr>Ag(ECr3+/Cr0=−0.74 V)(EAg+0/Ag=0.80 V)
The standard electrode potential ( E^- )values of ( Al^3+ / Al, Ag^+ / Ag, K^+ / K . and Cr^3+ / Cr are -1.66 ~V, 0.80 ~V, 2.93 ~V and -0.74 ~V,…
