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, Hg22+/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

3. Ag, Hg, Cu

4. Cu, Hg, Ag
