Standard reduction electrode potentials of three metals A,B and C are respectively + 0.5 V, – 3.0 V and – 1.2 V. The reducing powers of these metals are:
Options
- AA > B > C
- BC > B > A
- CA > C > B
- DB > C > A
Correct answer
D. B > C > A
Step-by-step solution
More the reduction potential, more is the power to get itself reduced or lesser is reducing power or greater is oxidizing power
