Given E Cr 3 + / Cr 0 = - 0 . 7 4 V; E MnO 4 - / Mn 2 + 0 = 1 . 5 1 V E C r 2 O 7 2 - / C r 3 + 0 = 1 . 3 3 V ; E Cl 2 / Cl - 1 0 = 1 . 3 6 V Based on the data given above,strongest oxidising agent will be :
Options
- AMn 2 +
- BMnO 4 -
- CCl -
- DCr 3 +
Correct answer
B. MnO 4 -
Step-by-step solution
Strongest oxidising agent has the highest standard reduction potential MnO 4 - / Mn 2 + = 1 . 5 1 V
