    Strongest oxidising agent among halogen is :

    A)  \[{{I}_{2}}\]      

    B)  \[B{{r}_{2}}\]

    C)  \[C{{l}_{2}}\]

    D)  \[{{F}_{2}}\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    Fluorine has maximum, reduction electrode potential \[({{E}^{o}}_{F/{{F}^{-}}}=2.87\,V)\], hence, it is easily reduced inot \[{{F}^{-}}\]and consequently \[{{F}_{2}}\] is the best oxidizing agent.
