MCQ
Oxidising action increases in halogen in the following order
  • A
    $Cl < Br < I < F$
  • B
    $Cl < I < Br < F$
  • C
    $I < F < Cl < Br$
  • $I < Br < Cl < F$

Answer

Correct option: D.
$I < Br < Cl < F$
d
(d) Tendency to gain ${e^ - }$ and oxidising power are related.

Among halogens $F$ is the directly most powerful oxidising agent.
