Q. In the electrochemical series, ions are arranged in an increasing order of discharge potentials.

Electrochemical series is a series of elements arranged in increasing order of their reduction potential and $E_{H^{+} / H_{2}}^{0} = 0$ . The metals above $H_{2}$ have – ve reduction potential, they are more reactive than hydrogen whereas metals below hydrogen are less reactive than $H_{2}$ . Reduction potential of metal depends upon
(i) sublimation energy (ii) ionization energy and (iii) hydration energy of ions.
