A scientist needs to check several parameters before coming
to a conclusion about the amount of water pollution. The scientists needs to
check the amount of dissolved oxygen in the water, temperature of the water,
the clarity of the water, the PH level of the water and also the amount of
bacteria present in the water. There may be other criteria’s, but the mentioned
ones are enough to gauge the amount of pollution in the water. Scientists often
takes fish and aquatic plants from the water to be tested to check the amount
of pollution indirectly affecting these species.

Answer : If we list the given chemicals according to their increasing oxidising ability then the order will be like this; 1 being the strongest and 6 being the weakest
1. K > 2. Ca >3. Ni> 4. Cu> 5. Ag> 6.Au
Explanation : Considering the reduction potential of each chemical species it will be easy to identify their oxidising capacity and differentiate accordingly;
More negative the value of reduction potential more is the ability of the chemical species to get oxidised.
Chemicals with their reduction potential is given below.
K has -2.92; Ca has -2.76; Ni has -0.23; Cu has 0.52; Ag has 1.50 and Au has 1.50.
There are eight bonded electrons in this molecule! :)
