Options

  1. ANH ₃ combines with Ag ⁺ to form a complex
  2. BAg ( NH ₃ )₂⁺ is a stronger oxidising reagent than Ag ⁺ .
  3. CIn absence of NH ₃ silver salt of gluconic acid is formed.
  4. DNH ₃ has affected the standard reduction potential of glucose/gluconic acid electrode.

Correct answer

D. NH ₃ has affected the standard reduction potential of glucose/gluconic acid electrode.

Step-by-step solution

Ammonia has no effect on the standard reduction potential.
