Consider the standard electrode potentials given below:
(a) \(E_{k^+/K}^o = - 2.93\ V\); \(E_{Ag^+/Ag}^o = 0.80\ V\)
(b) \(E_{Hg^{2+}/Hg}^o = 0.79\ V\); \(E_{Mg^{2+}/Mg}^o = - 2.37\ V\)  
(c) \(E_{Cr^{3+}/Cr}^o = -0.74\ V\)


The correct arrangement of increasing order for reducing power of elements is:

1. \(\mathrm{Ag}<\mathrm{Hg}<\mathrm{Cr}<\mathrm{Mg}<\mathrm{K} \)
2. \(\mathrm{Ag}>\mathrm{Cr}>\mathrm{Mg}>\mathrm{Hg}>\mathrm{K}\)
3. \(\mathrm{K}>\mathrm{Mg}<\mathrm{Cr}<\mathrm{Hg}>\mathrm{Ag} \)
4. \(\mathrm{K}<\mathrm{Mg}<\mathrm{Cr}<\mathrm{Hg}<\mathrm{Ag}\)
