When a copper wire is immersed in a solution of AgNO₃, the colour of the solution becomes blue because copper:

1. Forms a soluble complex with \(AgNO_3\)
2. Is oxidised to \(Cu^{2+}\)
3. Is reduced to \(Cu^{2-}\)
4. Splits up into atomic form and dissolves

The voltage of the cell given below increases with: 

Cell: Sn(s) + 2Ag⁺(aq) → Sn²⁺(aq) + 2Ag(s)

1. Increase in size of the silver rod.

2. Increase in the concentration of Sn²⁺ ions.

3. Increase in the concentration of Ag⁺ ions.

4. None of the above.

The standard electrode potential for Sn⁴⁺/Sn²⁺ couple is +0.15 V and that for the Cr³⁺/Cr couple is -0.74 V. These two couples in their standard state are connected to make a cell. The cell potential will be: 

If an iron rod is dipped in CuSO₄ solution, then:

1. Blue colour of the solution turns red.

2. Brown layer is deposited on iron rod.

3. No change occurs in the colour of the solution.

4. None of the above.

Without losing it's concentration, ZnCl₂ solution cannot be kept in contact with :

4. -0.30 V

Three Faradays of electrical charge are passed consecutively through four separate electrolytic cells containing aqueous solutions of AgNO₃, CuSO₄, Al(NO₃)₃, and NaCl. What will be the molar ratio of the respective metals deposited at each cathode?

The standard reduction electrode potentials of three metals X, Y, and Z are given as -1.2 V, +0.5 V, and -3.0 V, respectively. Based on these values, what is the correct order of their reducing power?

A solution containing one mole per litre each of Cu(NO₃)₂, AgNO₃, Hg₂(NO₃)₂ and Mg(NO₃)₂ is being electrolyzed by using inert electrodes. The values of standard electrode potentials in volt (reduction potentials) are,

Ag⁺ /Ag = 0.80 V, ${\mathrm{Hg}}_2^{2+}$/2Hg = 0.79 V,

Cu²⁺/Cu = +0.34 V and Mg²⁺/Mg = -2.37 V

With increasing voltage, the sequence of deposition of metals on the cathode will be:

1. Ag, Hg, Cu, Mg

2. Mg, Cu, Hg, Ag
