) is 
. What is the value of 
?
A
B
C
D
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
A
The nernst equation for reduction potential of an electrode is ;-
Thus the reduction/electrode potential will be highest for the lowest concentration of 
ions.
The lowest concentration of 
is 
. Thus, 
.
