Among the following, the strongest reducing agent is:
- A
- B
- C
- Correct answerD
Solution
Strongest reducing agent has the highest tendency to get oxidised. Higher the oxidation potential, higher is the tendency to get oxidised. Reduction potential of is least () which indicates that oxidation potential of is highest (). Thus, is strongest reducing agent.
Hence, the correct answer is option: 'D'.
