The standard reduction potential values of three metallic cation X, Y, Z are 0.52, – 3.03 and – 1.18 V respectively. What will be the order of reducing power of the corresponding metals ?

Answer

Answer:
The standard reduction potential is the tendency for a chemical species to be reduced, and is measured in volts at standard conditions. The more positive the potential is the more likely it will be reduced.

Y > Z > X.
