JEE Main 2014 Chemistry question
Given Fe^{3+}(aq) + e^- \to Fe^{2+}(aq); V ; ; V ; ; V. Considering the electrode potentials, which of the following represents the correct order of reducing power?
Answer: (2)
Solution
The more negative the reduction potential, the more readily the reduced form gives up electrons, i.e. the stronger a reducing agent it is. Aluminium's couple is the most negative (−1.66 V) so Al is
