The standard reduction potential at 298K the following half cell reaction.
Zn2+(aq) + 2e- → Zn(s); E°= -0.762V
Cr3+(aq) + 3e- → Cr(s); E°= -0.740V
2H+(aq) + 2e- → H2(g); E°= 0.0V
F2(g) + 2e- → 2F-(aq); E°= 2.87V
Which of the following is strongest reducing agent?

F2(g)
Which of the following ions can be replaced by H+ ions when H2 gas is bubbled through the solutions containing these ions ?
Li
Ba2+
Cu2+
Be2+
C.
Cu2+
Since, Cu2+ lie below H+ electrochemical series.
Therefore, Cu2+ ions displace H+ when H2 gas is bubbled in solution containing these ions.
