Electrochemical series - reducing power
-
The standard electrode potential ($E^\circ$) values of $Al^{3+}/Al$, $Ag^+/Ag$, $K^+/K$ and $Cr^{3+}/Cr$ are -1.66 V, 0.80 V, -2.93 V and -0.74 V, respectively. The correct decreasing order of reducing power of the metal is:Reducing power of a metal increases as its standard reduction potential decreases: K (-2.93) > Al (-1.66) > Cr (-0.74) > Ag (+0.80).
