In the silver plating of copper, K[Ag(CN)2] is used instead of AgNO3. The reason is:
 

1. A thin layer of Ag is formed on Cu
2. More voltage is required
3. Ag+ ions are completely removed from the solution
4. Less availability of Ag+ ions, as Cu can not displace Ag from [Ag(CN)2] ion

The EMF of a Daniel cell at 298 K is E Zn|ZnSO4(0.01 M) || CuSO4(1.0 M)|Cu.
When the concentration of ZnSO4 is 1.0 M and that of CuSO4 is 0.01 M, the EMF is changed to E2. The correct relationship between E1 and E2 is:

1. E1 > E2 2. E1 < E2
3. E1 = E2 4. E2 = 0 ≠ E1

Given the standard electrode potentials:

K+/K = –2.93 V
Ag+/Ag = 0.80 V
Hg2+/Hg = 0.79 V
Mg2+/Mg = –2.37 V
Cr3+/Cr = – 0.74 V
The correct increasing order of reducing power of the metals is:  
1. Cr < Mg < K < Ag < Hg 2. Mg < K < Ag < Hg < Cr
3. K < Ag < Hg < Cr < Mg 4. Ag < Hg < Cr < Mg < K
