Detailed Solution

  • The more negative or less positive is the electrode potential, more is the reducing strength of the species. Since the electrode potentials increases in the order
  • Li(-3.04V) < Na(-2.7V) < I-(0.53 V) < Ag(+0.79V) < Cl- (+1.36V),  therefore, the reducing strength decreases in the order 
  •  Li > Na > I- > Ag > Cl-
