The reversible potential of gold is more positive than platinum in emf series whereas in galvanic series the position of gold is below platinum.

The reversible potential of gold is more positive than platinum in emf series whereas in galvanic series the position of gold is below platinum. Correct Answer True

The reversible potential of gold is more positive than platinum in emf series whereas in galvanic series the position of gold is below platinum. It is due to the exchange current density of hydrogen evolution, as the galvanic tests are usually conducted in an acidic environment.
