Question
In an aqueous solution, hydrogen will not reduce(a) $\mathrm{Ag}^{+}$(b) $\mathrm{Cu}^{2-}$(c) $\mathrm{Zn}^{2+}$(d) $\mathrm{Fe}^{3+}$
Step 1
Step 1: To determine which ion hydrogen will not reduce in an aqueous solution, I need to compare the standard reduction potentials of each ion with that of hydrogen. Show more…

Which of the following reductions will occur in the presence of $\mathrm{H}_{2}$ gas under standard conditions? a. $A g^{+}$ to $A g$ b. $\mathrm{Mg}^{2+}$ to $\mathrm{Mg}$ c. $\mathrm{Cu}^{2+}$ to $\mathrm{Cu}$ d. $\mathrm{Cd}^{2+}$ to $\mathrm{Cd}$
From the following list, identify the ions that are more easily reduced than $\mathrm{H}^{+}(\mathrm{aq})$. (a) $\mathrm{Cu}^{2+}(\mathrm{aq})$ (b) $Z n^{2+}(a q)$ (c) $\mathrm{Fe}^{2+}(\mathrm{aq})$ (d) $\mathrm{Ag}^{+}(\mathrm{aq})$ $(e) \quad A l^{3+}(a q)$
