उत्तर
(ii) this redox couple is a stronger oxidising agent than H+/H2 .
(iv) Cu cannot displace H2 from acid.
Explanation:
The lesser the E0 value of the redox couple higher is the reducing power.
For \[\ce{Cu^{2+} + 2e^{-} -> Cu ; E^0 = 0.34 V}\]
For \[\ce{2H^{+} + 2e^{-} -> H ; E^0 = 0.00 V}\]
Since the second redox couple has less standard reduction potential than the first so it can be concluded that the redox couple is a stronger oxidizing agent than H+/H2 and copper cannot H2 from acid.
