Answer #1

Lower the reduction potential stronger is the reducing agent. So, the increasing order of standard reduction potential will be the the decreasing order of the strength as reducing agent. The values of standard reduction potential are:

K+​​​​​​/K = -2.93 V, Al3+/Al = -1.66 V, Sn2+/Sn = -0.14 V,

Ag+/Ag = 0.80 V, Au+/Au = 1.69 V and H2O2 (acidic) = 1.78 V. So, the order of strength as reducing agent will be:

1. K (most powerful reducing agent)

2. Al

3. Sn

4. Ag

5. Au

6. H2O2 (acidic half cell solution) (least powerful reducing agent)
