Which is a stronger reducing agent among Cr^(2+) and Fe^(2+) ? Why ?

Answer»

Solution :`Cr^(2+)` is stronger reducing agent than `FE^(2+)` , because `d^4 rarr d^3` OCCURS in CASE of `Cr^(2+) " to " Cr^(3+)` but `d^6 rarr d^5` occurs in case of `Fe^(2+)` to `Fe^(3+)` In AQUEOUS solution, `d^3` is more stable as COMPARED to `d^5`
