The standard reduction potentials at 298 K are given against each of the following half cell reactions :
I. \(\mathrm{E}_{\mathrm{H}^{\oplus} \mid \mathrm{H}_{2}}^{\ominus}=0.00 \mathrm{~V}\) II. \(\mathrm{E}_{\mathrm{Fe}^{3+} \mid \mathrm{Fe}^{+2}}^{\oplus}=+0.77 \mathrm{~V}\)
III. \(\mathrm{Zn} \rightarrow \mathrm{Zn}^{2+} \underset{\substack{\uparrow \\ \text { SOP }}}{\mathrm{E}^{0}}=0.76 \mathrm{~V}\) IV. \(\mathrm{E}^{\circ}\)
Based on the above data, state which of the following is the strongest reducing agent ?
