Consider the following reduction processes :

$$ \begin{aligned} & \mathrm{Al}^{3+}+3 \mathrm{e}^{-} \longrightarrow \mathrm{Al}(\mathrm{~s}), \mathrm{E}^0=-1.66 \mathrm{~V} \\ & \mathrm{Fe}^{3+}+\mathrm{e}^{-} \longrightarrow \mathrm{Fe}^{2+}, \mathrm{E}^0=+0.77 \mathrm{~V} \\ & \mathrm{Co}^{3+}+\mathrm{e}^{-} \longrightarrow \mathrm{Co}^{2+}, \mathrm{E}^0=+1.81 \mathrm{~V} \\ & \mathrm{Cr}^{3+}+3 \mathrm{e}^{-} \longrightarrow \mathrm{Cr}(\mathrm{~s}), \mathrm{E}^0=-0.74 \mathrm{~V} \end{aligned} $$

The tendency to act as reducing agent decreases in the order :

A

$\mathrm{Al}>\mathrm{Fe}^{2+}>\mathrm{Cr}>\mathrm{Co}^{2+}$

B

$\mathrm{Al}>\mathrm{Cr}>\mathrm{Co}^{2+}>\mathrm{Fe}^{2+}$

C

$\mathrm{Cr}>\mathrm{Fe}^{2+}>\mathrm{Al}>\mathrm{Co}^{2+}$

D

$\mathrm{Al}>\mathrm{Cr}>\mathrm{Fe}^{2+}>\mathrm{Co}^{2+}$

Given below are two statements :

1 M aqueous solutions of each of Cu(NO3)2, AgNO3, Hg2(NO3)2, Mg(NO3)2 are electrolysed using inert electrodes. Given: E0Ag+/Ag = 0.80 V, E0Hg22+/Hg = 0.79 V, E0Cu2+/Cu = 0.24 V and E0Mg2+/Mg = -2.37 V.

Statement (I) : With increasing voltage, the sequence of deposition of metals on the cathode will be Ag, Hg and Cu.

Statement (II) : Magnesium will not be deposited at the cathode instead oxygen gas will be evolved at the cathode.

In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below :

A

Both Statement I and Statement II are incorrect

B

Statement I is incorrect but Statement II is correct

C

Statement I is correct but Statement II is incorrect

D
