Which is the Strongest Reducing Agent?
Explanation for the correct options:
Metals are generally good reducing agents. Reduction is gain of electrons. When a metal loses its electrons it oxidizes itself and reduces others.
The more easily a metal loses its electrons, the better it is as a reducing agent.
"The more effective the oxidizing agent, the higher the electrode potential."
Because electrode potential decreases in the following order:
Zn(S) has a higher reducing power as a result. As a result, the correct response is Option (A).
Explanation for the incorrect options:
(B) It has lower electrode potential then .
(c) It has lower electrode potential then
(D) It has lower electrode potential then ..
Hence, the correct option would be.option (A)
