    Given that \[E_{{{O}_{2}}/{{H}_{2}}O}^{\Theta }=+1.23\,V;E_{{{S}_{2}}O_{8}^{2\,-}}^{\Theta }=2.05V\]
    \[E_{B{{r}_{2}}/B{{r}^{\,-}}}^{\Theta }=+1.09\,V;E_{A{{u}^{3+}}/Au}^{\Theta }=+1.4V\]
    The strongest oxidizing agent is:

    A) \[{{S}_{2}}O_{8}^{2-}\]        

    B) \[{{O}_{2}}\]

    C) \[A{{u}^{3+}}\]                     

    D) \[B{{r}_{2}}\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    Strongest oxidising agent   \[\propto \]lowest position in electrochemical series (ECS) So, Ans. \[={{S}_{2}}O_{8}^{2-}.\]
