Question
Using the data given below find out the strongest reducing agent.
`"E"_("Cr"_2"O"_7^(2-)//"Cr"^(3+))^⊖` = 1.33 V `"E"_("Cl"_2//"Cl"^-) = 1.36` V
`"E"_("MnO"_4^-//"Mn"^(2+))` = 1.51 V `"E"_("Cr"^(3+)//"Cr")` = - 0.74 V
Options
Cl–
Cr
Cr3+
Mn2+

Solution
Cr
Explanation:
A negative value of standard reduction potential for Cr3+ to Cr means that the redox couple is a stronger reducing agent.
