    The standard reduction potentials at 298K for the following half reactions are given against each
    \[Z{{n}^{2+}}(aq)+2e\rightleftharpoons Zn(s);-0.762V\]
    \[C{{r}^{3+}}(aq)+3e\rightleftharpoons Cr(s);-0.740V\]
    \[2{{H}^{+}}(aq)+2e\rightleftharpoons {{H}_{2}}(g);0.00V\]
    \[F{{e}^{3+}}(aq)+e\rightleftharpoons F{{e}^{2+}}(aq);0.770V\]
    Which is the strongest reducing agent?

    A) Zn(s)                            

    B) Cr(s)

    C) \[{{H}_{2}}\left( g \right)\]                     

    D) \[F{{e}^{3+}}(aq)\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    [a] Since oxidation potential of Zn is highest hence strongest reducing agent.
