                    Electrode potentials \[\left( {{E}^{0}} \right)\] are given below:                 \[{{\operatorname{Cu}}^{+}}+\operatorname{Cu}=+0.52V,\]                 \[F{{e}^{3+}}/F{{e}^{2+}}=+0.77V,\]                 \[\frac{1}{2}{{\operatorname{I}}_{2}}\left( s \right)/{{I}^{-}}=+0.54V,\]                                                 \[A{{g}^{+}}/Ag=+0.88V.\]                 Based on the above potentials, strongest oxidizing agent will be:                   JEE Main Online Paper (Held On 09 April 2013)

    A)                 \[{{\operatorname{Cu}}^{+}}\]                

    B)                 \[{{\operatorname{Fe}}^{3}}^{+}\]                

    C)                 \[{{\operatorname{Ag}}^{+}}\]                

    D)                 \[{{\operatorname{I}}_{2}}\]                

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

                    More positive value of electrode potential represents that \[A{{g}^{+}}\] is strongest oxidizing agent.
