MCQ
Which is the best reducing agent
- A${F^ - }$
- B$C{l^ - }$
- C$B{r^ - }$
- ✓${I^ - }$
✓
Answer
Correct option: D.
${I^ - }$
d
Strongest reducing agent among the halide ions is $I ^{\ominus}$. Tendency to lose electrons and reducing power are directly related to each other. Large sized iodide ion has maximum tendency to lose electrons and has maximum reducing power.
