Q. The standard electrode potential $\left(E^{-}\right)$values of $-1.66\, V , 0.80\, V , 2.93\, V$ and $-0.74\, V$, respectively. The correct decreasing order of reducing power of the metal is

Redox Reactions

Solution:

More negative is the value of standard reduction potential, higher is the reduction power.
i.e. Reducing power $\propto \frac{1}{\text { standard reduction potential }}$
Thus, the correct decreasing order of reducing power of the metal is:
