    Which reaction is not feasible?   [AIPMT 2002]

    A) \[2KI+B{{r}_{2}}3KBr+{{I}_{2~}}\]

    B) \[2KBr+{{I}_{2}}2KI+B{{r}_{2}}\]

    C) \[2KBr+C{{l}_{2}}2KCl+B{{r}_{2}}\]

    D) \[2{{H}_{2}}O+2{{F}_{2}}~4HF+{{O}_{2}}\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    [b] \[2KBr+{{I}_{2}}\xrightarrow{{}}2KI+B{{r}_{2}}\] reaction is not possible because \[B{{r}^{-}}\] ion is not oxidised in \[B{{r}_{2}}\] with \[{{I}_{2}}\] due to higher electrode potential of \[{{I}_{2}}\] than bromine. In halogens fluorine can displace chlorine bromine and iodine, chlorine can displays bromine and iodine and bromide can display iodine from their salts.
