The standard reduction potential at $298 \ K$ for the following half cells are given below :-
$NO_3^{-} + 4H^{+} + 3e^{-} \rightarrow NO_{(g)} + 2H_2O \quad E^0 = 0.97 \ V$

$V^{2+}_{(aq)} + 2e^{-} \rightarrow V_{(s)}$	$E^0 = -1.19 \ V$
$Fe^{3+}_{(aq)} + 3e^{-} \rightarrow Fe_{(s)}$	$E^0 = -0.04 \ V$
$Ag^{+}_{(aq)} + e^{-} \rightarrow Ag_{(s)}$	$E^0 = 0.80 \ V$
$Au^{3+}_{(aq)} + 3e^{-} \rightarrow Au_{(s)}$	$E^0 = 1.40 \ V$

The number of metal$(s)$ which will be oxidized by $NO_3^{-}$ in aqueous solution is $....$.
