Question : 80
Total: 88
Cu2+,Na+,Zn2+,Ag+(The order of Preferential discharge at the cathode)
Solution:  
Na+<Zn2+<Cu2+<Ag+
During electrolysis of aqueous solution, if a cation has higher electrode potential then water, it preferentially discharge at the cathode. The elements in the lower position in electro-chemical series gets discharged more easily, so Na+ discharged least preferentially and Ag+ more preferentially.
