Ni2+(aq) + Sn(s) = Ni(s) + Sn2+(aq)

The forward reaction is nonspontaneoud. What does this indicate about the relative strength of the reducing and oxidizing agent on each side of the equation?

Athe agents are of equal strength on both sides of the equation
BThe stronger agents are on the left side of the equation.
CThe stronger agents are on the right side of the equation
DThe relative strengths of the agents cannot be inferred

The correct answer is C because the agents on the products side and cause the reverse reaction to be spontaneous while the agents on the reactants side are weaker and therefore the forward reaction is non-spontaneous

Hope this helps
