Is 1.0M H+ ...

Question

Is 1.0M $H^{+}$ solution under $H_{2} S O_{4}$ at 1.0atm capable of oxidising silver metal in the prescence of 1.0M $A g^{+}$ ion?

Open in App

Solution

Since $E_{{A g}^{+} | A g}^{0} > E_{H^{+} | H_{2}}$
So $H^{+}$ can only reduce $A g^{+}$ to $A g$ , or $H^{+}$ can not Oxidises $A g$ to $A g^{+}$ . It can only reduces to $A g$ from $A g^{+}$ .
