MCQ
Strongest nucleophile in polar protic solvent is
  • A
    ${F^\Theta }$
  • B
    ${Cl^\Theta }$
  • ${I^\Theta }$
  • D
    ${Br^\Theta }$

Answer

Correct option: C.
${I^\Theta }$
c
In polar protic solvents (e.g. water and alcohols, any solvent with $OH$ ) nucleophilicity increases as you go down the periodic table ($F^- \,<\, Cl^-\,<\, Br^-\,<\, I^-$ )
