The standard electrode potential of $$\mathrm{M}^{+} / \mathrm{M}$$ in aqueous solution does not depend on

Given below are two statements : one is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R)

Assertion (A) : An aqueous solution of $$\mathrm{KOH}$$ when used for volumetric analysis, its concentration should be checked before the use.

Reason (R) : On aging, $$\mathrm{KOH}$$ solution absorbs atmospheric $$\mathrm{CO}_{2}$$.

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

Which one of the following statements is correct for electrolysis of brine solution?

The standard electrode potential $$\mathrm{(M^{3+}/M^{2+})}$$ for V, Cr, Mn & Co are $$-$$0.26 V, $$-$$0.41 V, + 1.57 V and + 1.97 V, respectively. The metal ions which can liberate $$\mathrm{H_2}$$ from a dilute acid are :
