The metals having higher negative value of standard reduction potential are placed above hydrogen in electrochemical series. The metals placed above hydrogen has a great tendency to donate electrons or oxidising power. The metals having great oxidising power are strongest reducing agent. Zn has higher negative value of standard reduction potential. Therefore, it is the strongest reducing agent.
