Question
A metal having negative reduction potential, when dipped in the solution of its own ions, has a tendency to
Options
A.remain as metal atoms
B.become electrically positive
C.become electrically negative
D.be deposited from the solution
Solution
$M^{n +}(aq) + ne^{-} \rightarrow M(s);E = - ve,\Delta G = + ve$
Hence, reverse reaction is spontaneous.
