    A gas X at 1 atm is bubbled through a solution containing a mixture of 1 M \[{{Y}^{-}}\] and 1 M \[{{Z}^{-}}\]at\[{{25}^{o}}C\]. If the reduction potential order is Z > V > X, then

    A)  V will oxidize X but not Z

    B)  Y will oxidize both X and Z

    C)  Y will oxidize Z but not X

    D)  Y will reduce both X and Z

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

                     As the value of reduction potential increases, oxidising power increases. Given, order of reduction potential = Z > Y > X Thus, it is clear that (i) Z oxidises both V and X (ii) V oxidises X but not Z (iii) X does not oxidise either Z or Y but can reduce these.
