The values of $E^0$ for metals $A$,$B$,and $C$ are $0.34 \ V$,$-0.80 \ V$,and $-0.46 \ V$ respectively. State the correct order for their ability to act as reducing agents.

  • A
    $A > B > C$
  • B
    $C > B > A$
  • C
    $B > C > A$
  • D
    $B > C > A$ (Wait,let's re-evaluate: $B > C > A$)
