Question

Accepted Answer

Correct answer: A. (a) E_ Cr_2 Of_4^ / ca^8^0=1.33 V_C_2/ Cr^ =1.36 V E_ MnO_4/ Mm^2^ =1.51 VE_ Cr^2/ Cr^0=-0.74 VThe species which has the most negative value of standard reduction potential will be the strongest reducing agent. Since Cr^3+/ Cr has SRP value of -0.74 V , Cr is the strongest reducing agent.

$Based on the data given below: E_{Cr_{2} O_{7}^{2 -} / Cr^{3 +}}^{\circ} = 1.33 V E_{Cl_{2} / Cl^{(-)}}^{\circ} = 1.36 V E_{MnO_{4}^{-} / Mn^{2 +}}^{\circ} = 1.51 V E_{Cr^{3 +} / Cr}^{\circ} = - 0.74 V the strongest reducing agent is:$
