What does a negative Eo value for a redox couple indicate?
What does a negative Eo value for a redox couple indicate?
Options
- AThe redox couple is a stronger reducing agent than the H⁺/ H2 couple.
- BThe redox couple is a weaker reducing agent than the H⁺ / H2 couple.
- CThe redox couple is in equilibrium with the H⁺ / H2 couple.
- DThe redox couple does not participate in electron transfer reactions.
Correct answer
A. The redox couple is a stronger reducing agent than the H⁺/ H2 couple.
Step-by-step solution
A negative Eo value indicates that the redox couple is a stronger reducing agent than the H⁺ / H2 couple.
