Statement I: A metal having negative reduction
potential when dipped in the solution of its own
ions has a tendency to pass into the solution.

Statement II: Metals having negative reduction
potential have large hydration energy.

View answer and explanation

Correct option: B

If both statements are CORRECT, and Statement
II is NOT the CORRECT explanation of
Statement I

Option B is correct because a metal with a negative reduction potential tends to pass into solution, and metals with negative reduction potential have large hydration energy, but the hydration energy is not the direct explanation for the tendency to pass into solution.
