Question

The standard reduction potential values of some of the p-block ions are given below. Predict the one with the strongest oxidising capacity.

(A) – Sn Sn 4 E = + 1.15V
(B) – Pb Pb 4 E = + 1.67V
(C) – AI Al3 E = – 1.66V
(D) – T T 3 E = + 1.26V

Correct answer: B. Oxidising agent is itself reduced and as S.R.P; Tendency to get reduced; Tendency of oxidising behaviour. Hence Pb+4 is best Oxidising agent.
