As we have learnt,

 

Standard reduction potential -

It measure the tendency of a chemical species to acquire electrons and there by be reduced. It is measured in volts or mv.

-

 

 Mg2+ has the highest reduction potential so its the strongest oxidizing agent.

 


Option 1)

Na+

Option 2)

Li+

Option 3)

Ba2+

Option 4)

Mg2+
