The correct option is C Cu cannot displace H2 from acid.
Oxidizing agent and reducing agent
Oxidising agents:
These are those species that oxidises other species and itself gets reduced.
Thus, higher the reduction potential, more is the tendency to get reduced and better will be its oxidising power and better will be the oxidizing agent.
Reducing agent:
These are the species that reduces other and itself gets oxidised.
Thus, lesser is the reduction potential, more is the tendency to get oxidised and more will be its reducing power and better will be the reducing agent.
Comparing the standard reduction
E0 Cu2+/Cu=0.34 V
E0 H+/H2=0.0 V
Reduction potential of Cu2+/Cu couple is more, thus tendency of Cu2+ to get reduced is more which signifies that it is a better oxidising agent than H+/H2 couple.
Metal reactivity α1standard reduction potential
Since E0 Cu2+/Cu>E0 H+/H2,
the metal reactivity of Cu is less, due to which it cannot displace H2 from acid.
Hence, the correct options are (B) and (D).
