Question

In aqueous solution, H2 will not reduce:
  1. Fe3+
  2. Ag+
  3. Cu2+
  4. Zn2+

A
Fe3+
B
Ag+
C
Zn2+
D
Cu2+
Solution
Verified by Toppr

According to standard electrode, apart form Zn+2 all other ion have higher reduction potential than H+ so, they can be reduced by H2 but as Zn+2 has lower reduction potential than H+ so it can not be reduced by H2.
