Question

Consider the following half-reactions.

	Cl₂(g) + 2 e^– → 2 Cl^–(aq)	E° = +1.36 V
	Ag⁺(aq) + e^– → Ag(s)	E° = +0.80 V
	Cu²⁺(aq) + 2 e^– → Cu(s)	E° = +0.34 V
	Sn²⁺(aq) + 2 e^– → Sn(s)	E° = –0.14 V
	Al³⁺(aq) + 3 e^– → Al(s)	E° = –1.66 V

Which of the following species will reduce Cu²⁺(aq) ion?

Ag(s) and Sn^2+(aq)

Cl^-(aq) and Ag(s)

Cl2(g) and Ag^+(aq)

Sn(s) and Al(s)

Sn^2+(aq) and Al^3+(aq)
