Question

Lead is able to displace silver from AgNO${}_3$ solution because its standard oxidation potential is higher than that of silver.

If true enter 1, else enter 0

Answer 1

Lead is a more active metal than silver and so, it can replace silver in a single replacement reaction. Standard oxidation potential of lead is higher than that of silver and so, $\Delta G^o$ for the overall reaction is negative. Therefore, the reaction is feasible.

$Pb\left(s\right)+2AgN{O}_3\left(aq\right)\to Pb\left(N{O}_3{)}_2\right(aq)+2Ag(s)$
