The standard electrode potentials for $Ag^{+}/Ag$,$Hg_2^{2+}/2Hg$,$Cu^{2+}/Cu$,and $Mg^{2+}/Mg$ are $0.80 \, V$,$0.79 \, V$,$0.34 \, V$,and $-2.37 \, V$ respectively. If an aqueous solution containing $1 \, M$ concentration of each of these metal ions is electrolyzed,what is the correct order of metal deposition at the cathode as the voltage is increased?
- A$Ag, Hg, Cu$
- B$Mg, Cu, Hg, Ag$
- C$Ag, Hg, Cu, Mg$
- D$Mg, Ag, Hg, Cu$
