    Bromine can be liberated from KBr solution by the action of:

    A)  chlorine       

    B)  NaCI

    C)  KI             

    D)  iodine solution

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    Key Idea: The more electronegative halogen displaces less electronegative halogen from its salt. \[\because \,\,\,C{{l}_{2}}\] is more electronegative than \[B{{r}_{2}}\]. \[\therefore \,\,\,C{{l}_{2}}\] displaces bromine from KBr NaCI, \[{{I}_{2}}\] and KI cannot displace bromine from KBr.
